On April 5th, 2025, Boulder Babe made a bold statement at Fort Collins Fashion Week, debuting the B.L.U.E. (Built Like U Exist) collection at the Fort Collins Museum of Art, hosted by NUE Magazine. Surrounded by fine art and bold thinkers, the runway came alive with denim reimagined—pieces stitched from denim donations, scraps, and salvaged seams that celebrated power, presence, and individuality.
The lineup showcased a powerful range of silhouettes: from the skin-baring precision of the Circle Prism Bodycon, to the raw-edged, high-slit drama of the Denim Siren Gown. The Rebel Stitch Mini Dress delivered angular grit and patchwork precision, while the Cosmic Princess Set brought fantasy to the floor with pastel denim and leopard tights.
A standout moment came with the Bella Jean Buttress Gown and Bag—a surreal, strapless maxi built entirely from layered denim jean bottoms—topped off with a matching mini bag that swung low on the hip like armor.
Closing the show was a heartthrob halter-jean hybrid with glitter hearts, worn by Bex Polis channeling Y2K-meets-90s-rave energy. Each model moved like a monument in motion—celebrating diverse bodies, radical reuse, and unapologetic storytelling.
More than just a collection, B.L.U.E. is a wearable manifesto—proving that fashion doesn’t have to be wasteful. It’s about honoring where materials come from and allowing them to empower.
By spotlighting reclaimed denim and unexpected silhouettes, Boulder Babe invites a new kind of luxury: one built from authenticity, resourcefulness, and creative defiance. The Fort Collins debut wasn’t just a runway moment—it was the beginning of a new type of movement. A denim one.
