Tampa Bay's Fashion Prodigy, Connor Totten, Prepares to Amaze with Annual Fashion Showcase

St. Petersburg, FL - Connor Totten, an 18-year-old fashion prodigy hailing from Tampa Bay, is ready to captivate audiences with his eagerly anticipated annual fashion show.

The event, featuring Totten's latest collection titled "Forwards Backwards," will serve as a prelude to his upcoming college experience at the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Taking place on August 5th at the Sundial Plaza, this fashion extravaganza promises to be the pinnacle of the summer's high fashion scene.

From a young age, Totten's passion for fashion kindled and now he aspires to establish his own international brand and label. Guided by Jeff Pope, the Founder and CEO of Jump For Kids, Totten's talent has blossomed. Inspired by Pope's mentorship, Totten began exploring the fashion world, initially designing for beloved teachers and subsequently organizing fundraisers to support his creative pursuits.

Reflecting on the essence of mentoring, Totten finds inspiration in the words of renowned filmmaker Steven Spielberg, who once said: "The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but giving them the opportunity to create themselves." Totten's mentorship with Pope exemplifies this philosophy, as both individuals have thrived through their collaborative partnership. 

In an exciting collaboration, Totten's sixth annual fashion show joins forces with Jackie Z Style Co, a renowned luxury fashion destination. Together, they will deliver an unforgettable display of the latest high-fashion ensembles and accessories on the runway. This collaboration is set to attract significant attention from fashion enthusiasts, promising a celebration of style and creativity.

Anticipation for Totten's fashion show has resulted in a surge in ticket sales, with fashion aficionados competing to secure their seats for the event. As the date approaches, attendees eagerly await the unveiling of Totten's visionary collection and the electrifying atmosphere of the entire show.
