The event will also allow for the designs to be purchased, creating revenue for the artist. 

“We’re literally a one-stop shop,” Jones said. “This event is a fashion presentation, a culinary experience, and a shopping experience as well.”

Following the event will also be an after party celebrating 40 years of Chicago house music. While more details about this event are still developing, house legends are rumored to not only attend, but also DJ. 

“Bridging that intergenerational gap. We know some people who are up and coming, and they play house music, but how cool is it to pair them with the OGs?” Jones said. 

Another event Jones is excited about is the “Surround Sound of Fashion,” taking place on Oct.12 at 4:00 p.m. at CineCity Studios, located at 2429 W. 14th St. 

This well-established fashion show is powered by Chicago radio station Power 92, and will feature some of the best local and nationally known designers, and a live performance from a national recording artist who has yet to be named. 

“I really see Chicago as a global city. So, you know, [there’s] London Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week. I want to carve out our own space,” Jones said.
