Welcome
A Message from the Producer
Duane Ram · Executive Producer
Welcome to Fashion Week Sacramento 2026 — our 21st annual production and two of the most ambitious evenings we have ever staged.
Across two nights at the California State Railroad Museum, we celebrate the full spectrum of independent fashion: emerging voices finding their footing on Friday, and established featured designers commanding the historic Roundhouse on Saturday.
This year we are honored to partner with V's Paradise Restaurant & Bar as our presenting venue sponsor — bringing an exceptional pre-show dining experience to both evenings and hosting our official Saturday Night Afterparty.
Every look on this runway represents countless hours of craft. Every model carries someone's vision forward. Thank you for being part of it.
