Now that all of your April foolery is complete, you’re probably asking yourself: What should I do now? Tonight kicks off the 10th anniversary of Miami Fashion Week. Problem solved. Come out and enjoy the sight of models strutting up and down the catwalk to the strains of thumping soundtracks.

SOHO Studios will host some of the world’s most renowned Latin designers, along with wet-behind-the-ear newcomers, who will share the spotlight for this week’s sartorial spectacular. Each night will feature new flavors and styles from different designers and nations, wrapping up with the celebrity-filled Miami Moda Awards and Fashion Show on April 13. Tonight at 6, set it off with the “Real Women, Real Beauty” Lee Ann Parks Fashion Show. Immediately following is the lingerie/swimsuit showcase and performance by dance crew Fysh & Chicks. Later, the drinkin’ and two-steppin’ hit full throttle at The Forge. For more info, call 305-534-5228 or visit www.miamifashionweek.com.
