Hoefer Welker’s interior design team was one of 28 groups that participated in the final Color + Couture runway event hosted by the International Interior Design Association (IIDA). The event features models wearing fashion made from carpet, wallcovering, upholstery, tile and other creative interior materials.
Garments are constructed by local architecture and design firms. Our employees crafted a dress made entirely out of upholstery fabrics that met the “Bon Voyage” theme of this year’s Color + Couture. Our team found inspiration in ancient Roman clothing and architecture. Neutral and gold tones mixed with textural fabrics truly made this dress come to life. The overlapping nature of the concrete shell walls of the Jubilee Ministry Center served as inspiration for the pleats in the top portion of the dress.
Hoefer Welker Interior Designer and designated team model Bailey Loyd proudly walked the runway wearing the elegant dress. Thank you to the following team members who helped design and construct the outfit:
