The 30th annual Boston Fashion Week ran from Oct. 13-19 this year. Since its founding in 1995, the series of more than 20 events has grown into a platform for both industry professionals and new designers on the scene — an opportunity to increase the visibility of global Boston artists and designers. Crimson photographers head behind the scenes of the Fierce Styles Menswear Show and Boston En Vogue’s Classical Luxury Show to capture the runways’ ever-evolving individuality and creative spirit.

TyScottLab’s designs take inspiration from Scott’s Native American roots, incorporating their heritage into streetwear clothing. Prophet | Envoy is driven by a community mindset, creating urban-style clothing that uplifts their wearers.

The show also featured designers ChanceByChances, Vizoe Lifestyles, and Fashion Trend Class.

The founder of Fiercestyles, Cheryl Regi James, closes the Menswear Show, giving special thanks to the production team, models, and designers that came together to realize her vision.

As part of Boston En Vogue’s Classical Luxury Show on Sunday, designer Conrad Lamour’s collection opens with McCarthy in a Trojan-inspired costume, featuring a bold red outfit paired with a helmet and shield.

Boston En Vogue’s models strike poses at the front of the catwalk, wearing gold suit sets, shining red gowns, and shimmering dual-tone dresses.

The show also featured a captivating Raqs Sharqui, or classical Egyptian belly dance, performance by Iria, featuring a colorful veil, finger cymbals, and a balancing scimitar act. The production embodied the cutting-edge artistic vision of Boston Fashion Week.
