Fashion Show!

[ellen_16]

At my school we are planning to do a fashion show to raise money for Africa! About 2 years ago the 6th formers did a fashion show for their Business Studies Course... we are trying to think of things that will make this fashion show AMAZING! What do youthink? any tips? thanks! x

do a pet fashion show! or being more serious! are you making the clothes being modelled? if you are you could sell them at the end

ask loca businesses for outfits so you can show sponsorship and that styles are as contemporary as your own designs. Perhaps do some African Style costumes and foods and use the music of groups like blck mambazo band to parade to, I am a business studies teacher and if you wanted further advice you could contact me on

Well you could ask ME to be in it!

Ok, scrap that idea. Some people are easily pleased (especially men) if there is a swimwear section. Ok, scrap that one too.

My ex-gf was a school teacher and her six formers held a fashion show where all the outfits were made from black bin liners. I doubt it was a new idea even at that time but it is amazing what creative minds can come up with, with a little imagination. If you throw in a couple of comedy sets maybe get a couple of willing male teachers, or volunteer parents in something skimpy with lots of lipstick etc. Maybe you could work the whole thing around a theme, or do a fashion show that tells a story - how fashion has changed from victorian bathing suts to skimpy 2-pieces or fashion eras from 1930s to the 2010s etc etc

I think it would be more �amazing� if you add something that people will a) remember (an outfit/a humorous moment); b) be impressed (creative ideas); c) laugh at and enjoy (all of the above).

Be creative, good luck.
