A week of couture and luxury fashion shows held at the beautiful California Center For The Arts Escondido will feature fine designers from across the country presenting exquisite fashions and accessories.

Fabulous world class and local fashion designers, hair and makeup artists, product and fashion exhibits, cocktail parties, in-store events and receptions await our guests at Fashion Week Downtown 2009.

This event attracts press coverage and upscale fashion buyers as well as socialites and other affluent fashion consumers.
