Don't think that Fashion Week begins and ends in big European cities like London, Milan, and Paris. New York leads the United States, and I'd like to think that LA makes a respectable showing. There are Fashion Weeks popping up in San Francisco, Seattle, and Dallas. But is the owrld ready for Fashion Week straight out of Columbus, Ohio?!?
I wasn't aware that Columbus had a big enough pool of designers to put together a Fashion Week, but apparently they do since they just closed their first Fashion Week last night. According to a quick interview on a video at lifestlye site The Palestra, Columbus is "ripe breeding ground to start turning a cowtown into a metropolitan."
While I doubt that Columbus will ever reach the same level as New York, I certainly give them credit for their effort.
