Just when you thought that the month of April was full of fashion wonder, May events prove that it's not over yet!

Set aside your seat for another extraordinary Tucson fashion show on Friday, May 6. Amid the glorious decor and architecture of the Fox Theatre, Tucson Young Professionals' First Fridays and Tucson Fashion Group present Passport - a spectacularly themed fashion event that includes a plethora of local designers and fashion stylists and their unique spin on style inspirations from around the globe.

This exclusive event will take you to places in far off destinations and make you dream of inhabiting the whimsical midnight suns in Iceland, shopping for chic fashions on the streets of London or perhaps yacht sailing on the open sea along the French Riviera.....you choose!

Fashion Stylist and Runway Coordinator Yekatherina Bruner will present a versatile gathering of designers, stylists, boutiques and brands including Pour Moi, Church of Satin, Phillip Manus, Painfully Hip, Sydney Ballesteros, Black Cat Vintage, RumB, Diki Wearables, Maya Palace, Silvia Bours and Diana Lopez. Following the catwalk show, the desert night continues on with the official First Fridays after party kicking off at 10pm.

So pack your suitcase and travel the world in one night! The opportunity to mix and mingle with the designers and their fashion models will be waiting at the exclusive VIP Reception, featuring savory eats from local downtown restaurants and a cash bar to supply all your thirst for the evening. The reception runs from 7pm-8pm and tickets include premier seating for the runway show, which starts at 8:30pm.
