What is Fleurish?
​
Fleurish is a collaborative runway show showcasing how sustainability, conservation, and beauty intertwine with our lives and our future. Local designers, hair stylists, and makeup artists join forces to create amazing designs that incorporate sustainable materials and innovative recycling methods, and reusing what was once discarded.
Year five of the annual sustainable runway show benefiting Ijams Nature Center coalesces local creatives for its most vibrant theme yet: Technicolor. Drawing focus to the environmental impacts of artificial intelligence and the antihuman nature of its design, Fleurish stands as a determined antithesis. Built over the last several years, Fleurish loudly showcases the power of creativity and community. Fleurish 2026: Technicolor represents 5 years of our shared mission; love. We do it out of love for our planet, love for fashion, and love for our people.
Fleurish engages the audience in ways we, the average consumers, can make changes to our day-to-day lives while never losing sight of the beauty of nature and the human experience.
​
The cocktail portion of the event is from 6-7:30 pm; guests will enjoy signature cocktails and passed appetizers from Potchke Deli while they check out the Green Carpet for a photo op and education stations, or learn about conservation efforts in the fashion realm. Then it's time to see what imagination can do with reusable, recycled materials when the models show off the looks that amazing local designers have created! After the show, rub elbows with the artists and designers on the hillside. ​​​​​​
