After a year off, Fall Fashion Week MN is back - Minneapolis Star Tribune

After taking last year off because of the pandemic, Fashion Week MN (FWMN) is back in full force.

Starting Sunday and running through the week under the "Dream" theme, it will feature a dozen events spotlighting local designers and boutiques.

FWMN CEO and co-founder Sarah Edwards said organizers continue to strive to make the event welcoming for all.

"The best feedback I heard during Spring FWMN was someone told me they could show up 100 percent authentic to who they are and not just be accepted, but be truly celebrated and supported," she said.

"That is what we are building. Honestly, if we had any rules it would be to show up in whatever way makes you feel the best and to be kind and open-minded."

Well, there is one rule: Masks will be required at all FWMN events.

If you want to see what's going on in the local scene and channel your inner fashionista, here's the line-up of events:
