About Chicago Frocktails

WHAT IS FROCKTAILS?

"Frocktails" typically refers to a social event or ​gathering for individuals who are passionate about ​sewing and creating garments. The term "Frocktails" ​is a combination of "frock," which is a term for a ​dress or gown, and "cocktails". Frocktails events ​involve participants dressing up in their “memade” ​or creatively styled garments, enjoying each other's ​company, and engaging in activities such as fashion ​shows, contests & giveaways, and networking over ​cocktails & lite fare at a “sewcial” and celebratory ​environment.

EMBRACE YOUR STYLE

Let your creative juices flow and dress up in your ​theme inspired me-made outfit for an ​unforgettable event! Themed events provide an ​opportunity for creatives to discover their own ​source of inspiration, driving their creativity to ​new heights when creating their frocktails look. ​Join us for Frocktails and showcase your most ​fabulous me-made frock, make a statement, and ​embrace your unique style. Ultimately, Frocktails ​is a place where all creativity is celebrated!

ALL SEWISTS WELCOME!

Whether you’ve been sewing for many years or just ​starting your sewing journey, everyone is ​welcome!! Frocktails is the perfect runway for your ​creations. At Frocktails, there's no 'right' way to ​sew. Your style is your own masterpiece. Embrace ​your creativity and let your unique designs shine ​Moreover, we will have pre- online events such as ​sewalongs & challenges to help you learn, share, ​and connect with a community of passionate ​sewists. It's not just about the garments; it's about ​the love for create, sew and make friends.
