Legends Home Attends Phoenix Fashion Week

Furniture World News Desk on 10/26/2023

The worlds of fashion and furniture design collided in a stunning display of creativity at Phoenix Fashion Week, October 21-22, where a unique and captivating art exhibit from Pinnacle Award finalist Legends Home took center stage. This innovative collaboration redefined the boundaries of style and design, offering attendees an unforgettable sensory experience.

"Every season at Phoenix Fashion Week we strive to push the envelope of what’s possible in the always evolving world of fashion and this year is no exception" says Brian Hill, Executive Director of Phoenix Fashion Week.  "The fusion of fashion and furniture within our Legends Home LIVE art installation added a completely new dimension to the runway shows, enhancing the visual and tactile experience for our fashion forward guests.”

Over seven feet wide and nearly nine feet tall, the monochromatic white installation was created on site after carefully rendering its entirety in 3D.  It featured a collection of furniture pieces mounted in an artistic display that encouraged visitors to participate.  Designers, models, creators, and fashionistas surrounded the exhibit for hours on end, making their mark with a colorful selection of paint pens.  A spotlight lit the display from the stage while Top 40 models posed in their couture collections to solidify the idea that furniture is fashion.  Attendees enjoyed the opportunity to witness the harmonious coexistence of the fashion and furniture worlds, blurring the lines between them to create a one-of-a-kind immersive experience.

“Right after I got announced as a finalist in the Phoenix Fashion Week Top 40 Models competition, I went to find my family.  We were all so excited!  My dad then showed me the installation and photo booth created by Legends Home.  We signed the installation at the same place but on opposite sides and it solidified what I had just accomplished and also allowed me to share it with my family.”  - Kennedy Pulliam – Phoenix Fashion Week Top 40 Model finalist 2023

In addition to the Legends Home art exhibit over 1,600 attendees witnessed a breathtaking fashion show featuring the latest designs from top-tier fashion brands and emerging talents.  Celebrity guests highlighted the experience, including global runway model Quannah Chasinghorse, gold medal swimmer Breeja Larson, and NBC Anchor Krystle Henderson.  Phoenix Fashion Week continues to be a celebration of innovation and artistry in the fashion world, and this year's collaboration with Legends Home broadened the horizon of what we call fashion.

“Attending and winning the 'Designer of the Year' at Phoenix Fashion Week was an unforgettable experience.  The joy of being recognized for our work was only amplified by the fun we had at the Legends Home photo booth.  It was a night of fashion, celebration, and memorable snapshots!"  Tony James - Founder and Designer at Throne of Grace Clothing, Phoenix Fashion Week 2023 Designer of the Year.

The Legends Home art installation revealed at Phoenix Fashion Week will be available to view and interact with at the Las Vegas Furniture Market in January 2024 at Showroom A646.
