It is over. Stout Fashion Week officially came to a close today with two public shows at 1pm and 5pm. It has been a long week for all of the coordinators, designers, and models. Stout Fashion Week began on Tuesday with the student show, and the crowd couldn't have been more pleased. The show had an impressive 80 designers, 200 garments, and 130 models. Studio Classes have been working for months creating their 4 piece clothing lines, and the 20+ Studio designers had some of the most impressive work of the entire show. However, I think there were some underclassman that came in a close second for most impressive. For a small midwestern school, it is quite impressive to see the quality of construction, design, and overall execution. When I was asked to model for two of the designers, I was thrilled. It is nice to be a part of something like the Silhouettes Spring Fashion Show. Being involved gave me many opportunities and allowed me to meet many new people. I had no choice but to get close to the other models considering our literal closeness. If anybody packed 130 models into 500 square feet of backstage space people are bound to learn something about one another. This week, as long and tiring as it was, was a great experience that I look forward to repeating in the future. A special thanks to the designers that cast me: Nick Ipsa and Maria Osenberg. These two have a bright future in the industry and I loved every minute of working with them. Now. I need to get back to a much needed study session with my Art History book. Good Night to all, and good night Stout Fashion Week, until we meet again next year.
