Dallas Fashion Week
A Texas fashion week record — the Dallas International Fashion Week launch, in the United States fashion weeks guide.
Dallas's fashion week record in this guide is a launch announcement, and it is carried in full below: Dallas Market Center, described as the world's largest wholesale resource, announced a partnership with LIVEstyle Entertainment and Commerce House to launch the Dallas International Fashion Week — a week of fashion shows and industry parties offering the public a first look at the newest fashions from regional, national and international designers.
The record keeps all three partners' own descriptions: LIVEstyle Entertainment, founded in 2002 and a producer of film, fashion, music and sports events; Commerce House, the Dallas marketing practice founded in 2004; and Dallas Market Center itself, founded in 1957, with more than five million square feet of marketplace and more than 50 markets a year.

A Market Center's Fashion Week
Dallas came to the fashion week form from the wholesale side. Its Market Center already gathered retailers from around the globe — the record counts more than 200,000 retail buyers a year from all 50 states and 84 countries — and the fashion week launch was a way to bring the runway experience of those markets directly to the public, in one of the largest wholesale and retail markets in the country.
That origin gives the Dallas record its distinctive cast list: an entertainment producer and a marketing practice alongside the market centre, rather than a designer council or a fashion institute. The partners' websites are linked among the references on this page.
