The story

Traditional clothing tells stories of land, family, artistry, and identity. Fashion Show 2026 placed those stories at the center of an afternoon designed for learning and celebration.

Clothing is more than decoration. Embroidery, color, materials, and silhouette can carry the history of a community and the hand of an artist.

This program invited Utah families to encounter Oaxaca through the artistry of its traditional dress and through the people who keep those traditions alive.

Three runway presentations and a cultural performance program unfolded among Dinosaur Park's prehistoric galleries, creating a distinctive meeting place for fashion, heritage, and family learning.
