The invitation…

to two shows…

The Romance of urban DecayCoco Chanel once stated "fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.

That notion is at the heart of the unique collaboration between Buffalo State College and the Burchfield Penny Art Center in presenting Runway 2.0-a fashion show that draws thematic inspiration from the Charles Burchfield exhibition, The Romance of Urban Decay.

Set against the panoramic backdrop of the Burchfield Penney's East Gallery, Runway 2.0 features the collections of Buffalo State College Fashion Program students and professional Western New York designers.

But as Coco Channel's words suggest, the evening stands to be more then simply a celebration of what we wear. It will be an exploration of who we are. And the spirit of Charles Burchfield. It will reflect the allure of a city and the subtle beauty that emerges as her buildings and streets grow old.
