Prizes for Shop Memphis shopaholics and the evening’s best dressed!

An intimate midweek gathering of Memphis’s premier boutiques, tastemakers, and style leaders.

This is where the city’s fashion set comes to lunch: curated looks styled by top retailers, a room full of patrons and trendsetters, and a daytime celebration of Memphis style at its most polished.

Before the runway lights come up, join us for an exclusive evening of conversation, cocktails, and couture.

Art & Aperitifs is a refined gathering that brings you face to face with three extraordinary creative forces shaping the future of fashion:

Michael Ngo — the celebrated designer known for sculptural silhouettes and boundary-pushing couture. His work challenges form, redefines elegance, and commands attention on every runway.

Joey Thao — elite stylist and image architect behind some of fashion’s most talked-about moments. A master of narrative dressing, Joey transforms clothing into statement.

Kyle Chan — renowned jeweler and creative force bringing luxury craftsmanship into the global spotlight. His pieces blur the line between adornment and art.

Set inside Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, this evening pairs bold ideas with curated cocktails in an atmosphere designed for conversation and connection.

When the conversation ends, the glow begins.

Afterglow is an exclusive continuation of the evening reserved for designers, Couture Collective members, sponsors, and Shop Memphis partners.

This private reception offers elevated access, deeper connection, and a chance to engage personally with our featured designers and fashion leaders.

The premier event of Memphis Art and Fashion Week — and the night every fashion lover in the city will be watching.

Runway at the Museum is where Memphis steps fully into the Fashion Week spotlight, featuring a lineup of designers from emerging talent to celebrated headliners, culminating in a featured presentation by nationally acclaimed couture designer Michael Ngo. This is the most photographed, most anticipated evening of the week: a room filled with designers, patrons, tastemakers, and fashion devotees dressed for the moment.

When the final look clears the runway, the night is just beginning.

The Runway Afterparty is where the energy shifts, the lights go low, and the celebration turns electric. Join the fashion crowd as Memphis lets loose in style—on a dance floor buzzing with creativity and connection.

This is your chance to celebrate with the designers, models, makeup artists, hair stylists, and fashionistas who made the night unforgettable. It's the beating heart of Memphis style, and you're invited.

Super Saturday is Memphis Art and Fashion Week’s daytime celebration of creativity for the whole family.

Designed especially for families and young makers, this fashion-themed day invites children, teens, and parents to explore the art of design together through hands-on activities, playful imagination, and collaborative making.
