Today we’d like to introduce you to Tiffany Lewis.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
My journey in fashion began as a teenager when I attended modeling school and discovered a passion for the industry that would shape so much of my life. What started as an interest quickly turned into a long-term passion, and over the past 35+ years I’ve had the opportunity to model in many experiences I’m incredibly grateful for, including walking in New York Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week. Those experiences gave me a front-row seat to the creativity, discipline, and production that happens behind every successful show.
As the years went on, I realized my passion was expanding beyond being on the runway. I became more interested in what happened behind the scenes and started getting involved with other productions and helping coordinate, organize, and bring the creative vision to life. That experience opened a new door for me and ultimately led me into producing.
Today, while I still enjoy modeling and continue to do some select opportunities, my primary focus is producing large-scale fashion events here in Greenville, South Carolina through Greenville: A Night of Fashion. Creating experiences that bring together fashion, creativity, community, and purpose has become such a rewarding part of my journey. Looking back, every season, from being a young model to now producing shows, has helped shape where I am today, and I’m excited for what’s still ahead.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Overall, my experience in this industry has been very positive and I’m grateful for the opportunities and relationships that have come along the way. But like any industry, and especially one that has been part of my life for over 35 years, there have definitely been moments that were eye-opening and lessons that came through experience.
Over time, I’ve learned the importance of being selective about who I work with and what opportunities I say yes to. Not every experience was easy, and some lessons I learned the hard way, but I truly believe those moments helped shape me. They taught me discernment, strengthened my confidence, and helped define my values.
Those experiences have made me a better leader and producer today. I’ve become intentional about creating an environment that is professional, respectful, encouraging, and collaborative. I want the people who work with me to feel valued and to have a positive experience, because I know firsthand how important that is in this industry.
We’ve been impressed with Greenville A Night Of Fashion , but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I am the Founder and CEO of Greenville: A Night of Fashion, a large-scale fashion production created to bring an elevated, high-end fashion experience to Greenville while also creating something that has purpose and impact beyond the runway.
After spending more than 35 years in the fashion industry as a model and gaining experience both on and behind the scenes, I saw an opportunity to create something different—something that combined fashion, professionalism, community, creativity, and heart. Today, my focus is producing fashion shows that showcase designers, boutiques, models, and local businesses while creating an unforgettable experience for guests.
What we specialize in is producing polished, large-scale runway events that feel sophisticated and inspiring, while remaining welcoming and inclusive. We highlight established and emerging talent, encourage collaboration over competition, and intentionally create opportunities for people to grow and be seen.
I think what sets us apart is our culture and purpose. Fashion can sometimes feel exclusive or intimidating, but my goal has always been to create an environment where people feel valued, respected, and encouraged. We believe beauty comes in many forms and that there is room for different ages, backgrounds, looks, and experiences. We also love partnering with nonprofits and giving back through our events because I believe fashion can be a platform for good.
Brand-wise, I’m most proud that in a relatively short time we’ve built something that the community has embraced. Seeing our recent shows sell out, bringing together over 300 attendees, featuring over 100 models and multiple designers and sponsors, and hearing people say they felt inspired and included—that means more to me than anything.
What I want readers to know is that Greenville: A Night of Fashion is more than a runway show, it’s an experience. It’s where fashion, art, community, and purpose come together, and we’re just getting started. There are exciting things ahead, and I’m grateful to continue building something meaningful in Greenville and beyond.
Where do you see things going in the next 5-10 years?
I see the fashion and event industry continuing to grow into more of an experience-driven space, where creativity, connection, and innovation matter just as much as what’s on the runway. For my brand, I see continued growth each year through larger-scale events, keeping things fresh, thinking outside the box, and bringing new and exciting ideas to Greenville. My goal is to continue creating elevated experiences that leave people inspired and wanting more.
