The second annual Charleston magazine’s Charleston Fashion Week is a five-night celebration of the city’s flourishing retail and design community, featuring runway shows from more than 30 local retailers, the bridal couture show, and the debut of six local designers. With close to 100 designers presented, chic after-parties each night, and a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Charleston chapter of Dress for Success, this year’s Charleston Fashion Week will be the “haute”-est event of the season. CFW 2008 will be held March 25-29 under the tents in Marion Square in downtown Charleston.
