Or perhaps they would? We are, after all, nestled in a growing oasis in the middle of Texas in the city of weird, and no one looks twice when a man doused in glitter walks past. This is Austin, and the event was Fashion X, the fourth largest fashion show in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>I think what I loved the most about this final night of Austin Fashion Week, which also happened to be the fashion concept\u2019s 10th anniversary, was the fearlessness that surrounded me. All body shapes, all genders, all types graced the open floor of the white-walled warehouse called Vault Space in North Austin. Upon ascending the stairs under the arch of bulging, green balloons, one was instantly whisked away into a fairy tale of sorts. Every color of the rainbow was waiting for us in the form of ruffles and lace, food and drink, the speakers blaring songs I didn\u2019t even realize I knew the words to, that lifted me up and somehow made walking in heels a little easier. The models, attendees, designers, event employees &#8211; everyone was in high spirits. The chatter was abundant, the laughter loud, the fashion luminous.<\/p>\n<p>www.artprofiler.com<\/p>\n<h3>More info on Fashion X Austin &#8211; Austin Fashion Week Ends with a Bang!<\/h3>\n<div class=\"ss-local-rss\"><div class=\"rss_header\"><h2><a href=\"https:\/\/cn.bing.com\/news\/search\/?q=Fashion+X+Austin+-+Austin+Fashion+Week+Ends+with+a+Bang%21&amp;qft=sortbydate%3D%221%22&amp;format=rss\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"rss_title\">Fashion X Austin - Austin Fashion Week Ends with a Bang! - BingNews<\/a><br \/><span class=\"rss_description\"> Search results<\/span><\/h2><\/div><ul>\n            <li>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bing.com\/news\/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&amp;aid=&amp;tid=6634aae4d3c54ed896b9884a9e68c7f7&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fhoodline.com%2F2024%2F05%2Faustin-fashion-week-spotlight-shines-on-acc-fashion-incubator-s-rising-design-talents%2F&amp;c=5195597608146051030&amp;mkt=en-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAustin Fashion Week Spotlight Shines on ACC Fashion Incubator's Rising Design Talents\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Austin Fashion Week spotlights talent from the ACC Fashion Incubator, including brands like Banbury Saints and Design Girls World.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n            \n            <li>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bing.com\/news\/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&amp;aid=&amp;tid=6634aae4d3c54ed896b9884a9e68c7f7&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kxan.com%2Fnews%2Flocal%2Faustin%2Fweekend-watch-whats-in-store-for-weather-at-pecan-street-festival%2F&amp;c=6471080033168299065&amp;mkt=en-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWeekend Watch: What\u2019s in store for weather at Pecan Street Festival\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Meteorologist Nick Bannin shares a few ideas for fun things to check out this weekend along with an updated look at what\u2019s in store with the forecast.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n            \n            <li>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bing.com\/news\/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&amp;aid=&amp;tid=6634aae4d3c54ed896b9884a9e68c7f7&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fthehill.com%2Fhomenews%2F4603909-ut-austin-students-protest-layoffs-over-new-dei-ban%2F&amp;c=11394882494392233786&amp;mkt=en-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tUT Austin students protest layoffs over new DEI ban\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Students at the University of Texas at Austin protested Thursday after the school laid off more than 60 staff members to comply with Texas\u2019s diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) ban that went ...<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n            \n            <li>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bing.com\/news\/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&amp;aid=&amp;tid=6634aae4d3c54ed896b9884a9e68c7f7&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wsaw.com%2F2024%2F04%2F18%2Ffirst-alert-weather-blustery-cool-end-work-week%2F&amp;c=16996702770228041893&amp;mkt=en-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tFirst Alert Weather: Blustery &amp; cool to end the work week\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Periods of rain are likely, lasting into Tuesday.
