The first fashion show to ever happen at Willie Nelson’s Luck Ranch will take place this Saturday, Oct. 29, at Lucktoberfest, and we are the official live stream presenting partner.
Desert Roses will feature five local queer designers, NICÓ, DASHE, FLAMER, This Is Sloane, and Alive by Benjamin. The theme of the show is queer southern glamour.
Our post supervisor Michael Zumaya edited and colored the promotional video, and Hannah Varnell directed.
“Getting to work alongside Hannah Varnell was truly an amazing experience,” Zumaya said. “Hannah cares so deeply about community, art, and proliferating creative environments; this was so apparent during our editing process. There was so much work in curating this show, from the physical space to working alongside the designers, and lastly, the actual video production. Everyone involved is exceptionally talented and cares deeply about Desert Roses. Hannah truly is a multi-faceted talent, truly putting a piece of herself in every work she creates.”
“Everyone involved is exceptionally talented and cares deeply about Desert Roses.”

Doors open at noon, and Desert Roses begins at 5 p.m. A limited number of tickets are still available.
If you can’t attend the show in person, catch the live stream on the Luck Reunion Facebook page.
