Past Event: Summer at Sea, 2008

The winds of 2008 brought salty air and nautical finery to the Summer at Sea spectacle. The first official Designers Selection Committee helped to usher in eleven designer new to the 18th Street Fashion Show. The debut of the water-free synchronized swimming troupe– the Kansas City Sea Sirens– opened the runway and gave way to eighteen collections of sea-inspired fashions. And Mark Southerland and Friends' oceanic jazz beats accompanied the models as they walked the plank and posed on a grand cruise ship stairway. It was a seaside success.
