Fashion / Bristol Fashion Show
Bristol Fashion Show heads to Ashton Court
The Bristol Fashion Show opens its doors at Ashton Court Mansions on Saturday, November 17 bringing a collaborative display of the diverse and unique independent designers Bristol has to offer.
Previously known as Coexist, the creative team behind the Bristol Fashion Show are a collective formed at Hamilton House who for more than two years have been throwing fabulous community-led fashion shows that encourage local designers, creatives and makers to come together.
With an aim to continue to raise awareness and money for Hamilton House, the fashion show will be an extension of the original Bristol Fashion Show All-Dayer and sees the team, fronted by Butzi Shlaadt-Goode, come bouncing back from the postponed event earlier this year with lots of enthusiasm and ideas, promising to be the first of many shows under the Bristol Fashion Show name.

The collective will continue to showcase both new and established Bristol creatives’ talents and have even bigger plans to create a community of independent designers that can connect, expand and grow together, as a creative hub.
“Our aim is to encourage our community and local designers to engage and get involved in more of what they love to do, by highlighting some of the incredible hidden talents Bristol holds,” Butzi tells Bristol24/7.
“This fashion show is just the start of a dream to bring people who share interests and talents together, in a way that forwards a vision of a real community effort, not only the designers, but local photographers, hair and make-up artists, models and anyone else that wants to contribute to making this dream happen”.
