The First Look: An Opening Celebration

Begin Pacific Fashion Week with an intimate evening of fashion, food, music, and connection overlooking Kaimana Beach.

First Look brings together the designers, artists, partners, and guests shaping the inaugural Pacific Fashion Week. Meet the people behind the week, hear the story of how Pacific Fashion Week grew from the legacy of FESTPAC 2024, and share an evening celebrating the creativity and relationships that connect Hawaiʻi with the wider Pacific.

This is your first chance to meet our featured designers and get a glimpse of what Pacific Fashion Week has in store for its inaugural year. First Look is an exclusive opportunity to engage with our designers and fashion industry insiders in an intimate setting. 

The evening will feature live music, heavy pūpū, hosted beverages, and a brief opening program introducing the vision for Pacific Fashion Week and the events ahead.
