The Mercury has been running an annual Spring fashion showcase for an astonishing 11 years! Well, I'm astonished, anyway! It's taken various forms over the years, but we like where it is now: A series of four, early evening shows at four different close-in venues. It's happy hour timed (doors are at 5!), and happy hour-priced at just $6 per show (or buy a series pass for just $20), and this year's lineup is one of the best we've ever had:

Frankly, I can think of fewer more pleasant things to do on an early summer weekday evening than take in some of the city's finest design, all manufactured here in your backyard, over a yummy summery drink or two. Get your tickets now, and I'll see you there.
