The runway is ready. Kevin Kelly Vision’s 6th Annual Fashion Show returns with its “Royal Gala” theme, bringing fashion and fundraising to center stage on Thursday.

Kevin started his career while still in high school, attending beauty school and doing hair out of his parents’ garage. As his clientele grew, his parents took a leap of faith alongside him and opened Kevin Kelly Salon.

The annual fashion show began as the salon’s grand opening celebration. When tickets quickly sold out and the event had to be moved to a larger venue, Kevin realized it had the potential to become something much bigger, turning it into an annual fundraiser to benefit the community.

Today, the event has evolved into the Kevin Kelly Vision Annual Fashion Show, with a different immersive theme each year. This year’s theme is “The Palm Royale.”

The event takes place Thursday, Aug. 13, from 6:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. at the Barn on South Holland in Holmdel.

Kevin is a celebrity hairstylist who works with numerous television personalities and travels throughout the country for events and appearances.

Kevin Kelly Vision supports a variety of causes throughout the year. Upcoming initiatives include a Back-to-School Backpack Drive, a Holiday Sip & Shop fundraiser, the annual Giving Tree benefiting Collier House in New Jersey and the Annual Christmas Meal Drive in partnership with Eat Clean Bro.
