Covering Chicago Fashion: AKIRA Spring 2012 Fashion Show

April 16, 2012

Less than a decade ago, AKIRA opened the doors of its first women’s clothing boutique in Chicago’s Bucktown neighborhood. Since then, they have taken Chicago by storm with their unique clothing, great customer service, and breath taking fashion shows.

AKIRA, held their Spring 2012 Fashion Show, “Valley of the Castles,”  at the Lyric Opera House in late March. I had the privilege of attending and had an absolute blast. Here’s a glimpse of the magical night:
