About this Event
Beards & Bowties VII: Dandy & Distinction 🤎🍷
Get ready for an unforgettable evening where fashion meets purpose, style meets swagger, and dandyism takes center stage!
Now in its seventh year, Beards & Bowties is more than just a fashion show. It's a celebration of creativity, confidence, individuality, and community, while bringing awareness to the importance of men's mental health and emotional well-being.
Through fashion, we're creating space to celebrate men beyond their appearance, encouraging conversations around mental health, self-expression, and the importance of showing up for one another.
Expect bold runway looks, talented designers, distinguished gentlemen, live entertainment, a red carpet experience, and an atmosphere filled with style and sophistication.
Whether you're rocking a tailored suit, a statement bow tie, or your own interpretation of dandyism, come dressed to impress and ready to experience something special.
Because looking good is one thing, but feeling good, being seen, and knowing you're supported matters even more.
