Show de Couture
July 1st, 2022 @ Rock Creek Country Club
Fashion + Art + Music + Community
In the summer of 2022, Mark Mo Regalia + Cada Casa hosted a performance event showcasing local designers' art. Our goal is to bring inclusiveness into the fashion show industry by curating a collection of almost a dozen local artists ranging from vocal performers to fashion designers to compose entertainment for guests through many different forms.

Mark Mo
Headlining designer and event organizer, Mark Mo, is a luxury street and couture brand founded in 2020 by Mark Morales and Ky Nashi and curated by Monte Angel. We have been shown at Portland Fashion Week as well in LA. We strive to bring a new experience to fashion from our women's and men's lines M.A.M. and ManyMen as well as with our events.

Emerging Designers, Models & Performers
Fashion shows are not a new concept to Portland, but they are rare in the suburbs and are often difficult to access for upcoming designers and models with limited resources and exposure. This event highlights local, emerging designers and showcases models in a professional format that allows for career building and experience for all involved.

Community Support
Proceeds from this event support Cada Casa’s Apparel Design program. In addition to hosting live screen printing and pour-overs from their Coffee Lab 227 program, Mark Mo donated time during their art exploration class. Students were able to earn high school credits while they deconstructed used garments from the local Goodwill and learned basic sewing and design techniques.

Future Events

This show will continue to highlight emerging designers from POC communities while also highlighting local fashion schools and resources. More information will be posted in Mid-March.
