Virginia’s capital has a lot to offer beyond the walls of state government buildings and corporate headquarters. That’s what Hampton Roads lifestyle magazine Distinction highlighted in it’s recent article which explored Richmond’s flourishing fashion scene.
It turns out the city has a lot to offer for you fashionistas — from the choices at Need Supply Co. in Carytown to the endless denim selections at Shockoe Atelier in Shockoe Bottom, Richmond is littered with a variety of vogue ensembles that give it the potential to be a marvel in the fashion community.
The magazine shouts out the designers of Richmond menswear startups like luxury brand Ledbury and preppy American-made brand Collard Greens.

It also doesn’t hesitate to trumpet the contributions of VCU art students and graduates who are helping to fan the flames of artistic development in the old southern city.
“Vibe. Renaissance. Energy. Locals use different words to describe what’s going on, but most seem to agree that talent, location and quality of life have made it fashionable to live in the capital city,” says the magazine on RVA’s fashion culture.
