Pros and Cons of Fashion Shows in Chicago

Advantages

  • Diverse choice of fashion show venues
    From beautiful old churches to purpose-built modern event venues, Chicago boasts plenty of spaces where you can host your next fashion show. Some come as a blank canvas for you to add your personal touch to, while others are beautifully decorated and ready to go.
  • Affordable rental prices
    Compared to some other major cities in the United States, real estate is still relatively affordable in Chicago, which means you’ll probably pay less for your venue rental than you might elsewhere.
  • Professional vendors
    Chicago boasts an extensive network of professional vendors who can make your fashion show happen, from photographers to designers and beauty professionals in hair and makeup.

  • Easy transportation options
    If you’re hoping to attract out-of-state or international guests to your fashion show, Chicago is a great choice, thanks to its two international airports and convenient rail connections.
  • Attractions
    Aside from its logistical advantages as a destination for fashion shows, Chicago offers plenty to see and do outside of your event. From art galleries to entertainment districts and landmark skyscrapers, there’s something that will appeal to everyone.

Disadvantages

  • Weather
    Chicago’s nickname - the “Windy City” - says it all. In addition to strong winds, the city experiences hot and humid summers followed by often bitterly cold winters. That being said, both spring and fall can be pleasant times to visit the city.

  • Bad traffic
    Traffic in the city center can be notorious, and you’ll need to plan ahead if you book a fashion show venue in Chicago’s Loop district. Try to avoid scheduling your show around rush hour when the streets can come to an absolute gridlock.

  • Parking is difficult
    In addition to its bad traffic, finding a place to park in Chicago’s city center can be a nightmare. To overcome the issue, it’s best to use taxis or shared-ride services to get around.
  • Safety
    Some of Chicago’s neighborhoods aren’t the safest, with the city having a relatively high crime rate. It’s best that you and your fashion show guests avoid walking around at night to prevent any issues.
  • High taxes
    In Chicago, tax is added onto groceries, which is something to keep in mind when budgeting for your event and booking catering.

Famous Locations in Chicago

  • Navy Pier
    In the Streeterville neighborhood, Navy Pier is a popular entertainment destination that’s clustered with restaurants, exhibition spaces, and shops. You can ride the carousel and the remote control boats or experience the sensory maze of the Funhouse, then step inside the striking glass atrium of the Crystal Gardens.
  • Art Institute of Chicago
    Set within a Beaux-Arts-style building designed for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, this renowned art museum is home to hundreds of thousands of works. Its collection spans around 5,000 years of human creativity, ranging from Byzantine pieces to European decorative arts and contemporary photography.
  • Willis Tower
    For some of the best views in Chicago, ride the elevator that leads to the top of the 108-story Willis Tower, which was once the tallest office block in the world. There are 360-degree panoramas on offer from the 103rd-floor SkyDeck, as well as a glass-floored box known as The Ledge that allows you to peer down on the city below.
