Now in its sixth season, Chicago Fashion Fest will be returning to West Division Street on August 23rd and 24th for Big Easy-inspired fashion and music. Paired with Chicago's New Orleans Festival, the event will give fashion and food lovers alike the chance to shop from local clothing and accessories vendors while sampling bites of jambalaya, fried alligator and other Cajun-Creole cuisine.—Taneisha Jordan
