Indianapolis, Indiana – The month of May’s 500th Fashion Friday debuted yesterday.
A way to bring together racegoers, fashionistas, and anyone else who wants to flaunt their Month of May flair is 500 Fashion Fridays.
Every Friday in May, downtown Indianapolis employees are urged to dress in their best racing-inspired attire in honor of the Indianapolis 500 and the state’s illustrious racing history.
B. Erin Designs, a local retailer run by Brooke Minnix in Speedway, is one that’s joining the party.
“We have tons of checkered options. We have tons of IMS-licensed (apparel) by Justin Patton. He does his artwork and he puts it on all kinds of different products,” Minnix said.
B. Erin Designs, according to Minnix, has more than just clothing.
“We have the cooler for race day or all the days that you go to the track. We have, if you’re hosting parties, we have napkins, paper products, all the tumblers — we have fun sayings on them — candles, ornaments, chocolates. I mean, anything that you could want.”
