Detroit Women in Design
Detroit Women in Design is proud to announce its official launch with a powerful four-part initiative dedicated to amplifying, investing in, and celebrating the women driving Detroit’s fashion and design landscape. This thoughtfully curated series begins with ACT I: The Design Lab, a women-only collaborative space at @theetherdetroit (Russell Industrial Center), where photographers, stylists, models, designers, and makeup artists will come together to create high-impact, portfolio-ready visuals. ACT II: The Gallery will showcase selected works from the Lab in a public exhibition at @detroit_shipping, leading into ACT III: The Fashion Show, an immersive, live runway experience celebrating the creativity born in the Lab. Finally, ACT IV: The Scholarship will award five $200 scholarships to emerging women creatives in fashion, styling, or creative direction, along with mentorship from industry professionals. All recipients will be chosen by an all-women panel of judges. Detroit Women in Design is more than a platform—it’s a commitment to building sustainable infrastructure that places women at the center of design, from concept to execution to recognition.
