Ma Vie En Plastique

MN Fashion Week kicks off tonight with Ma Vie en Plastique, a runway show, a short-film screening, and mix and mingle at the WXYZ Bar at Aloft Hotel on Washington Avenue in Minneapolis.

Smart & Chic Beauty Lounge and Pearson Knight (formerly of Juut, now of PKHair) are joining their glamorous superpowers to style hair and makeup for sweet spring collections sourced from MartinPatrick3, Parc Boutique, GH2. Items from I Like You and Bethany Lorelle will make an appearance, among others.

Doors open at 7, with $5 manne-tinis available in the bar until 8. Poser, a short film, will screen at 8:30, with the runway show beginning at 9. Happy hour runs from 10-12 in the WXYZ bar after the show. I hear space is tight already, so arrive early for tickets and seating. See you there!

$10 at the door. Aloft Hotel, 900 Washington Ave. S., Mpls.
