Get Ready to Boogie: How "Chic, Le Freak" Fashion Show is Putting Disco and Dance on the Runway!

Brace yourself for a night of glamour, disco, and so much heart! On Friday, La Rue Marche is rolling out the glitziest fall fashion show you won't want to miss! This year's theme? "Chic, Le Freak!" It's not just about strutting fabulous 1970s disco styles; it's a dazzling way to support the incredible Phipps Center for the Arts Adaptive Dance Program.

This explosive event is the brainchild of a past visionary, Lisa Shortridge, and it's been blowing minds ever since. Now, under the fabulous guidance of Krystal Pelant—who once ogled this very show as an eager shopper—the tradition continues to grow with style and purpose. From Cruella de Vil-inspired runways to Girl on Fire themes, this event has seen it all, and this year the glitter ball spins for a cause that's truly close to the heart.

Expect spectacular models (including dancers from the adaptive program!) to rock two sensational looks along the Jono Gardens walkway. They'll shine brighter than ever, thanks to local makeup artists and nearby restaurants pumping up the energy with tunes, eats, and the show's signature drink!

La Rue Marche isn't flying solo in this mission. With businesses chipping in and community members rallying together, it's more than fashion—it's a bursting celebration of the Hudson spirit. As the excitement builds, Pelant can't help but gush, "I’m incredibly grateful for everyone who supports us. The energy will be electric and seeing everyone come together makes me so proud."

So, get ready to dance the night away and witness a fusion of fashion and art that makes a difference. Will you be there when "Chic, Le Freak" takes over the town?
