Every year, designers and fashionistas city-wide congregate for a weekend full of colorful jewelry, clothing and couture. Philadelphia has steadily been making its mark as a fashion-conscious city with its eclectic mix of the avant garde and the wearable. This year, dozens of designers showed off their wares, culminating in three extravagant fashion shows during the last weekend in February.

Philadelphia Fashion Week 2013 kicked off to a glamorous start at the Crane Arts Building in Northern Liberties with its Accessories show, featuring an array of Philadelphia accessories designers.
