The event of high drama, fashion, and biological splendor is coming again to the world famous Garfield Park Conservatory. This years foray into botanic haute couture has come from a history of high art, fun, and beautiful models. These glamorous events have been a big help to the fund that keeps the conservatory in good shape, and the shape this year is one of repair after the devastating hail damage from last year.
