Admission is FREE and there will even be a contest for the funkiest outfit!

In the next week, Crystal City will become the area’s go-to location for fashion and fun. In addition to runway and trunk shows, Crystal Couture, sponsored by the Crystal City Business Improvement District, offers a chance to support local charities, relax with free massages and win prizes.

“Crystal Couture brings amazing area designers, boutiques and charities together in one, two-week event,” said Angela Fox, President/CEO of Crystal City BID. “Whether you’re a fashionista, fitness fiend, or open mic poet, we’ve got something for everyone. Drop by and enjoy free fitness classes, massages, makeovers, and tattoos as well as great daily contests with prizes.”

Every day boasts a different theme at Crystal Couture, carried out through design, activities, drinks, and food. Attendees are encouraged to dress the part and compete for prizes, including gift certificates to local boutiques, restaurants and more.
