Cody, Wyo. — Each September, top designers and artists from around the country come here to show off their latest and greatest works in an eclectic display of furniture, fashion, paintings, sculptures and more. The Rendezvous Royale is a weeklong celebration of the arts that highlights Cody, Wyo. as a cradle of Western design.

Volunteers make the week possible, ranging from those who help park cars to dozens of local models who took to the runway Wednesday evening for two fashion shows that featured everything from traditional cowboy boots and hats to couture leathers, feathers and furs.

For a complete schedule of events, visit the Rendezvous Royale web site. Meanwhile, enjoy a gallery of some of the top shots from Wednesday’s fashion show.
