This One is for the books.

Richmond Fashion Week, RVAFW, did it again for its spring/summer season, SS24. It was a long week filled with fashion shows, mix-and-mingle/networking events and of course, after-parties. I had the opportunity to report on FW for two Richmond-based magazines, Style Weekly and Mostly Sugar.

Here are some more photos that did not make Instagram or Twitter.
