This weekend, I'll be modeling in the Love & War: The Age of Enlightenment Fashion Show, part of Florida Fashion Weekend 2014. This will be my first runway show since I moved to Florida in October 2012, so, as you can guess, I am very excited, but also a little nervous.
The show will start at 9 p.m. on Saturday, May 10, at Jai Gallery in downtown Orlando. There is a pre-show mixer starting at 7 p.m. with music and hors d'oeuvres. There will also be ballet performances by the Russian Ballet of Orlando.
I will be modeling Brandi "Bahiyah" Wajd's collection. She is the creator of Bahiyah Epifania Fashion, "African inspired clothing with a modern feel." Bahiyah Epifania means beautiful awakening in Swahili, which is what Brandi intends to create with her designs. She got her start in fashion over 20 years ago as a model, and launched her own line in January 2013.
Tickets for the show are $25 for general admission, $35 for preferred, and $50 for VIP. Click here for an explanation of perks or to purchase a ticket.
