Six Can't-Miss Fashion Events in Denver in September

Denver's fashion scene is filled with everything from markets to parties to pop-ups. Here are six can't-miss events in September; watch for updates later this month.
1) Spruce Grand Opening 
6:30 p.m. Thursday, September 3
4347 Tennyson Street    
To call Spruce a clothing store is oversimplifying things. Husband-and-duo Taylor Romero and Becca Miller have created a menswear store that marries fashion, technology and grooming. At this new spot in the Berkeley neighborhood, men can transform their look from head to toe with hair products, skin products, shaving products and, of course, clothes and accessories. Come to the official grand opening party and celebrate more ways for Denver to look good — and watch for an interview with Romero and Miller soon.

2) The Cotery Pop-Up Shop
6-8 p.m. Friday, September 4
Buffalo Exchange
51 Broadway 
This pop-up shop from The Cotery, a Boulder-based effort, will investigate the relationship between fine art and fashion. A resource for up-and-coming designers, the Cotery is collaborating with Buffalo Exchange to host an art show featuring limited-run fashions. Titled Cut and Sew, the show will put a spotlight on fashion designed by local designers, accompanied by the original artwork that inspired the clothing. Featured artists include Ancient + Future, Heather Taylor, JDP, Katy Zimmerman, Lauri Lynnxe Murphy, Samuel Mata, SDK and Will Day. Come get  your hands on these designer garments (as well as others produced by the Cotery), and don’t miss the whisky tasting sponsored by Blank & Booth Distilling Company on opening night. The show continues Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m.  to 5 p.m. Click here for more information. 
3) Fashion Denver Sizzles 
3 to 9 p.m. Saturday, September 5
Illegal Pete's 
270 South Broadway
Mastermind, entrepreneur, dreamer and doer, Brandi Shigley is gearing up with her Fashion Denver team for a mini-fashion market titled Babes on Bocci, a sizzling fashion event just in time to cap off summer. There will be  fashion shows on the bocce court at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. featuring  local designers, along with hair and makeup by Flaunt Salon. "It’s always fun to have the bigger markets with several designers, but there is something that feels so fresh to skim things down and make this market an intimate experience with just a few designers. Since the move out of our Bannock location, I have been in a hibernating state and am tiptoeing back out. This just feels good,” says Shigley. Join these creative types on the patio at Illegal Pete’s for a memorable summer celebration. Click here for more details.
