PATHOS: A Runway Show & Art Exhibition at New Haven Union Station
June 29 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

On June 29, Threads By Tea will debut PATHOS—the first fashion runway staged inside New Haven Union Station, followed by a curated train ride and immersive exhibition in Milford. The show highlights five emotions through local designers, live music, and interactive art.
Three Acts, One Ticket
Runway Show — 2 PM, New Haven Union Station
The station’s grand concourse becomes a live catwalk featuring capsule collections by DEAD BY 5 (Brenton Shumaker) and Donald Carter Designs, plus the debut of Threads By Tea’s PATHOS line.
Curated Train Ride
Guests board a private train car for a round-trip journey with live performance by Frank E. Brady, extending the narrative in motion.
Exhibition & Reception — 6 PM, Milford Arts Council
Art installations curated by Juanita “@curatornita” Sunday, live models, an original five-song EP created by Ionne, soul-food cuisine by Famous Alabama Kitchen and libations by 3 Queens immerse attendees in each emotion’s visual and sensory story.
“What began with ETHOS now moves—literally—through PATHOS,” says Threads By Tea founder Tea Montgomery. “By activating two railway landmarks and a moving train car, we’re asking guests not just to watch fashion, but to travel through it—feeling every emotion along the way.”
