It's inspiring when we learn about how successful our Christian Fashion Week alumni have become. Fashion designer, Julia Chew, wowed us in CFW2013 with her first Xiaolin runway collection. This year, expect a surprise look from this talented artist, created exclusively for Christian Fashion Week 2015.

Fashion Designer Julia Chew to Showcase One-Of-A-Kind Garment at Christian Fashion Week 2015 Designer Showcase

Christian Fashion Week announced today that fashion designer and Christian Fashion Week alumna, Julia Chew, will be showcasing an exclusive Xiaolin garment for and inspired by her experience at Christian Fashion Week. Although Chew will not have a full collection to showcase at Christian Fashion Week 2015 this year, she will be presenting her look and sharing about how the event has impacted her career as a designer and person of faith.

"I have been working to create a show-stopping look for release at Christian Fashion Week 2015 since I returned from showing my collection at Oxford Fashion Week in England," commented an excited Julia Chew. "My concept combines Russian ballet and Asian mythology for the look of a high fashion fairytale. The audience at CFW will be the first to catch a glimpse at one of my most intricate designs yet."

As in previous years, Christian Fashion Week 2015's fashion showcase will be held in Tampa, Florida at The Vault, a beautiful, historic, windowed venue in downtown Tampa, on February 20th. This showcase will be the grand finale after a week of events.

"As many know, this may be the last Christian Fashion Week for a while", commented Executive Director, Jose Gomez. "But, there are many amazing people who are raising their hands and working to keep Christian Fashion Week alive. For now, we simply intend to make 2015 the best year event. Then, it's time to reformulate, link arms, and move into the next phase as an organization."

"We've definitely hit a nerve," said Jose Gomez, co-founder of the event and president of the Fashion Industry Association. "We are so proud of our designers and overwhelmed by the response we've received from both the Christian and secular community. Zondervan Publishing has played such a critical role in our momentum and we cannot be more thankful for their partnership. We love the fact that our VIPs will be receiving a new StyleLine Bible in the swag bags. You won't see that at New York Fashion Week!"

Event Schedule

The VIP reception, which is limited to VIP ticketholders and event participants, begins at 7pm on Friday, February 8. The event will be held at the Bayanihan Arts and Events Center located at 14301 Nine Eagles Drive, Tampa, FL 33626.

Doors for the main event open at 5pm on Saturday, February 9. The first show of the night, an interactive women-only swimwear segment, will begin at 6pm. At 7:30pm, Christian Fashion Week's main show will begin. Eight world-class designers - Alma Vidovic, Carmelita Couture, Evelyn Lambert, Franco Montoro, Julia Chew, Pat McGhee, Sandra Hagan, and Sumita Bhojwani - will showcase their new collections. From bridal to evening wear, the night promises to deliver non-stop fashion with a modest yet stylish flair.

About Christian Fashion Week

The vision of Christian Fashion Week is to create the world's first series of fashion shows and events around the idea of fashion with a Christian worldview, considering Christian values such as modesty, boldness, and true style. We aim to create a viable forum for fashion designers and industry professionals to network and increase awareness of a values-based fashion industry that has always taken a back seat to the world's more risqué sense of style. Christian Fashion Week is a mission to stand for dignity on behalf of communities, families, and fashion consumers.
