Pittsburgh Opera brought glamour and high notes together with its annual fashion show held at the Bitz Opera Factory on Liberty Avenue in the city’s vibrant Strip District. This year’s theme, It’s About Time, wove fashion history into every look that graced the runway. Longtime Pittsburgh fashion icon Richard Parsakian of Eons Fashion Antique curated the evening, which marked his farewell to the show after more than four decades of contributions to the event. The evening was chaired by Melanie Crockard and Michele Fabrizi with Honorary Chair Karin Legato. The night kicked off with cocktails from Mindful Hospitality and light bites from Aviva Catering. The runway show featured Pittsburgh Opera’s Resident Artists performing and modeling throughout the evening. The sold-out event raised over $65,000 to support Pittsburgh Opera Live performances.
