Fangirls are finally making a statement in the fashion community utilizing style as their ultimate superpower.

This fashion power was on display during The Her Universe Fashion Show at San Diego Comic-Con 2014, the world’s premiere comic book and popular arts convention. The first ever full-scale “Geek Couture” fashion show and design competition was the brainchild of Ashley Eckstein, co-founder of the leading sci-fi fashion apparel company, Her Universe, and partner with the Araca Group. Together, they joined forces with licensed apparel destination Hot Topic to bring it fully to life. Showcasing their custom fashions, The Her Universe Fashion Show was a groundbreaking event which gave fangirls a spotlight to present their designs to the world. Fans were also treated to an after party and live concert by All Time Low presented by Hot Topic.
