As we mark our organization’s 15th anniversary of serving the transgender, gender nonconforming, and intersex (TGI) community, The TransLatin@ Coalition is thrilled to announce the 10th anniversary of our GARRAS Fundraising Fashion Show. This milestone event commemorates a decade of showcasing fashion and style and underscores the importance of creating a space where everyone feels loved, welcomed, and embraced.
A Decade of Celebration and Empowerment
For the past ten years, GARRAS has been more than just a fashion show. It has celebrated resilience, creativity, and empowerment within the TGI community through dazzling runway presentations featuring designs from talented individuals. Through dazzling runway presentations, GARRAS has shone a spotlight on the beauty and diversity of gender expression. We raise funds for vital programs and services yearly and celebrate our community members' strength and courage.
One of the hallmarks of GARRAS is its commitment to inclusivity. We believe fashion is for everyone, regardless of gender identity or expression. Our runway showcases various models, representing the rich tapestry of identities within the TGI community. From glamorous evening gowns to avant-garde streetwear, GARRAS celebrates the full spectrum of style and self-expression.
