Denver's creative energy is on full display year-round, and nowhere is that more evident than at its thriving local fashion and art events. Whether you're a longtime resident or new to the city, these must-attend happenings give you a chance to experience the city's style scene up close—and rep your best local look. As a South Broadway boutique rooted in Colorado style, Mountain Standard Goods is here to help you show up in confidence.
1. First Fridays on South Broadway (aka SoBo First Fridays)
One of the most beloved monthly events in Denver, First Fridays on South Broadway turn the entire strip into a lively celebration of local art, music, and of course, fashion.
What to Wear: Go for an outfit that blends effortless cool with creative edge. Try pairing our Canyon Wide-Leg Trousers with a cropped linen tank and one of our hand-dyed shackets. It’s relaxed, artsy, and ready for wherever the night takes you.
Local Hotspot to Check Out: After shopping and strolling, grab a drink at Historians Ale House or enjoy some late-night vinyl at Mutiny Information Cafe.
2. First Fridays in the Art District on Santa Fe
With dozens of galleries opening their doors, this First Friday tradition in the Art District on Santa Fe is a haven for creatives and fashionistas alike.
What to Wear: Make a statement with one of our Colorado-crafted accessories. Pair with a clean monochrome base like our Essential Everyday Tee and high-rise jeans for an understated-yet-stylish vibe.
Local Hotspot to Check Out: Fuel up with tapas at El Noa Noa or cool off with a cocktail at The Hornet.
3. Denver Fashion Week
Hosted twice a year, Denver Fashion Week (DFW) is the pinnacle of local style culture. This is where you get to turn heads and connect with designers, models, and other fashion lovers.
What to Wear: DFW is all about bold and intentional fashion. Go for a structured jacket, wide-leg pants, and statement earrings from our shop. The goal: editorial energy with Mountain West soul.
4. Holiday Markets + Street Fairs
From summer block parties to winter holiday markets, Denver's outdoor events are full of opportunity to express your seasonal style.
What to Wear: Layer for comfort and style. Grab our Mountain Dusk Pullover, pair it with a soft beanie, and don't forget our recycled cotton tote bags to carry your market finds.
Local Hotspot to Check Out: Check out Denver Bazaar or South Pearl Street Farmers Market to experience local makers and artisan goods.
