Local fashion was on the runway as JustBeU Magazine held its print edition launch party in Simsbury, Conn. on April 2.

At The Riverview, the magazine, which is based in Tolland, hosted runway shows from Connecticut’s Couture France, Future Glass, and others. Additionally, rappers Klokwise and G-Nice performed at the party organized by Just Be U’s founder, Tina Rattigan.

The runway collection presented by Couture France was the keynote of the afternoon in the Farmington Valley. The clothing played on the theme of an “unusual wedding” with all matters of avant garde approaches to bridal wear.

This is what was happening in the ballroom at The Riverview and behind the scenes.
