Denver Fashion Week Responds To Community Demand With Second Model Audition Date – 303 Magazine
Following overwhelming demand from aspiring models across Colorado, Denver Fashion Week (DFW) has announced a second round of model auditions for its upcoming Fall/Winter 2026 runway season.
According to DFW, the organization received a large number of emails and social media messages from models hoping for another opportunity to audition after the initial model auditions on May 17.
In response, DFW will host an additional audition date on August 9, giving fresh talent another chance to join one of Denver’s biggest fashion platforms.
Known for its commitment to inclusivity and community-driven casting, Denver Fashion Week is searching for both traditional and non-traditional models with strong runway presence, personality, and confidence.
Audition opportunities include:
- Male and female models ages 6–65+
- Kids and teen models ages 6–14
- Stylish moms and fashionable children for the “Mommy & Me” runway segment
DFW continues to emphasize its all-inclusive approach to casting and does not select talent based on race, religion, body type, height, age, or sexual orientation. Both agency-represented and independent models are encouraged to audition.
Model Workshop Recommended
For first-time runway talent or anyone looking to sharpen their walk and stage presence, DFW highly recommends attending its Model Workshop ahead of auditions. The workshop is designed to help prepare models for the runway experience and provide insight into what casting directors are looking for during Fashion Week. REGISTER HERE

Denver Nuggets standout forward Peyton Watson could find himself on another team before you know it.
With the Nuggets reportedly open to a sign-and-trade of Watson, could Denver really lose a core piece to their rotation?
It’s hard to imagine many teams being able to shoulder the financial weight of a Watson contract at this point because of the aprons and such, but he’s absolutely an asset to any contending team.
We’ve gone through and identified a few teams that make sense for Watson in the fall… including the one he’s already on at the moment. Hey, he might stay home, you never know!
The Clippers have been linked to Watson as a possible destination; he could help them immensely.
The Pistons have also been linked to Watson, which would help them a lot to contend for an NBA title.
Look, HYPOTHETICALLY, the Nets could move around some cap space with some player trades and such and get a deal done. They are one of the only teams in the NBA right now not in the negative with cap space.
The Grizzlies are the team with the least amount of negative cap space right now, per Spotrac. If they really wanted to pull off a Watson sign-and-trade… it would be hypothetically possible from a money standpoint.
Denver Nuggts
Look, it’s very possible Watson just stays in Denver on a brand-new deal. Who knows at this point?
DENVER (KDVR) – A Denver Park Hill Resident says trash in her alley hasn’t been picked up by city-run waste collection in more than 2 months.
“It’s starting to be frustrating because that pile has been there 2.5 months, and I’m not kidding about that,” Andrea Sanders-Childs said.
A spokesperson for Denver’s Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (DOTI) says they did receive a call about the address on Krameria in mid-June and are investigating the case as ‘illegal dumping’ versus ‘missed collection.’
The DOTI spokesperson says more information will be available when the inspector assigned to the area returns on Wednesday.
Sanders-Childs said that the people who live in the home closest to the mess had actually rented a dumpster; however, it was eventually picked up and towed away.
In the meantime, for Denver residents, DOTI provided FOX31 with the following reminders:
- Carts that are overfilled, stuffed or too heavy cannot be emptied
- All trash must be inside the cart, and overflow trash cannot be collected
- To report illegal dumping, call 311
Denver may be hundreds of miles from the nearest coastline, but Coloradans know that you don’t need an ocean to embrace beach season. Around here, a beach isn’t defined by sand or crashing waves—it’s a state of mind.
Whether you’re sipping an ice-cold Corona Extra beneath string lights, soaking up sunshine on a rooftop, relaxing beside a mountain view or gathering with friends at your favorite neighborhood patio, every Colorado summer has its own version of paradise.
That’s exactly what inspired Corona Extra and 303 Magazine’s Beach Anywhere campaign, celebrating the patios that capture the carefree spirit of a beach day—without ever leaving Denver.
VOTE HERE or below
Whether your perfect patio includes rooftop skyline views, oversized yard games, sports on big screens, frozen cocktails, live music, or a laid-back neighborhood atmosphere, one of these contenders is ready to become your Beach Anywhere destination.
Every Patio Has Its Own Beach
Colorado summers look a little different than those on the coast—and that’s exactly the point.
Our beaches are found on rooftop decks overlooking downtown, lakeside breweries, mountain-facing patios and hidden neighborhood gems where conversations last until sunset.
Add a cold Corona Extra, your favorite people, and plenty of sunshine, and you’ve found your own version of paradise.
Now it’s time to decide which patio deserves the title.
Voting runs July 7–31, with the winner announced August 4.
Must be 21 years of age or older and a Colorado resident to participate. Please enjoy Corona Extra responsibly.
