This year brought another well-done fashion event in Calgary: Parkshow 2011. The idea behind Parkshow is to create a semi-annual fashion, music and art show that will support Parksale- an annual market where local artists and vendors can showcase and sell their work. For those who don't know , PARK stands for "Promoting Artists, Redefining Kulture". It is a network organized by a group of young Calgarians to promote and support emerging artists in the community.
Parkshow Spring 2011 took place in Arrata Opera Centre which was beautifully transformed into a perfect place for a fashion runway. The show opened with a great performance by a talented woman who brought the style of vintage dance alive. This was followed by a fashion show featuring the designs of Chantel Traub, Apiana Que, NRT Designs, Emogene Couture, KARA, as well as Soul Apparel, MaNoKin Design and Alecyn Lea.
Models from Sophia Models looked beautiful thanks to the great work of Hedkandi Salon and makeup artists from Smashbox. After the runway show, everyone still had a chance to extend the experience of this fashionable night by partying with great live DJ sounds. It was definitely a remarkable night!!!!
