Why Market Square?
During a $15 million revitalization led by the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership, Market Square stands as a symbol of transformation — mirroring the very theme of this event.
Despite phased construction, the space remains vibrant and accessible, featuring infrastructure updates that support public art, performances, and fashion showcases like this one. “Construction to Couture” celebrates the rebirth of this central space as a canvas for creative reinvention.
Business Features Throughout the Week
In addition to the September 18th Cocktail Crawl, Market Square businesses will extend the celebration with exclusive Pittsburgh Fashion Week features and offers Monday, September 15th, through Saturday, September 20th, ensuring fashion enthusiasts and visitors alike can experience the energy of Fashion Week all week long.
