A new kind of Fashion Week

Let's face it. The clothes displayed during Fashion Week aren't exactly wearable. Some outfits are too conceptual, some too complicated and quite a few are too revealing. The ideas are gorgeous, but for those who don't have a creative mindset, it can be difficult to buy into a trend when we don't know how exactly to wear it.

A new kind of fashion show that debuted in 2013 will help fashion-followers on how to take a more modest approach to trends: the Christian Fashion Week.



Started by Jose and Myra Gomez, this is a fashion week dedicated to honoring Christian designers, as well as audiences who don't want to show off everything they've got. The 2014 show was done in Tampa, Florida this month, displaying 16 designers from all over the world.

Reporter Jessica Misener observed the show to see what exactly a Christian Fashion Week looks like. While some of her observations seem silly, most of them really give a great idea as to what this event means.

One of the great details  is that women audience members are encouraged to feel the fabric and ask questions about the garments. According to Misener, everyone was very open and friendly- a characteristic not normally attributed to the fashion world.
