This show will be an immersive experience featuring the work of four designers: Allegra, Chance of Uniq Jeans, Menez to Society, and Faatma Be One’ with live musical performances and dance throughout. There are more than 10 countries represented in this show in one way or another. Replete with vendors, a full bar, and good eats. This is an experience you won’t want to miss.”
