In April 2022, Femme Country Magazine expanded onto a brand-new platform in a first for the country publication industry. With a fervour to pull our interior contents and ethos from beyond the pages, ‘The Country Muse Runway’ made its debut. Dramatic lighting, a full audience and the chance to see collections displayed live, are just some of the factors that drive this extraordinary celebration of rural fashion.
Whilst the rules during the pandemic prevented us from attending events, at Femme Country Magazine we made it our priority to ignite excitement back into the country calendar. After watching our subscriptions surge dramatically in the Covid era, we were eager to host a unique style event that mirrored the publication’s interior contents and created a tangible connection between our readers and brands.
Our debut runway in 2022 saw guests travel from all areas of the UK to secure front row access to an event which had never been seen before in the country industry. Today we maintain our values, ethos and mission, working with luxury fashion and lifestyle brands to showcase the vision of their collections, leverage their reach and generate sales.
Talking in honour of the shows, our Editor-in-Chief, Brontë Clare Mitchell comments, “We create shows immersed with spirit that commend the vision of the brands, the work of their designers and the diversity of the women wearing the garments.” To read more about our debut show click HERE
