!!! Okay, so. If you heard weird sounds from my apartment today, I promise I'm not dying.
I need your help.
So there’s a big exhibition at school early next month, sort of an end of semester deal. For upperclassmen, it ties in a ton to final grades and everything, but it’s just an exhibition for underclassmen. Last month, they opened up for submissions. Basically, we were supposed to submit sketches, swatches, pictures, etc. of anything that was at least 75% complete. Since I’ve been working on a lot of this since January, I ended up submitting ten.
They picked fucking eight of them, and they want two of them on the actual runway. I think that I just happened to turn in the most and they were all so close to finished that they figured it was a good way to fill up the exhibition space, but anyway.
So the exhibition itself is about 50 students’ work, mostly that of juniors and seniors who have finished lines to walk. We have a sort of booth situation, where we set up sketches and business cards and basically position ourselves to chat with people. Other than that, we can actually show the pieces however we want. A lot of people basically use their models like human mannequins (creepy as fuck).
OKAY SO. Basically, my plan is for my people to just mill about and blend in with everyone in attendance. Stick a little thing with my name on it, but mostly just let you roam. Maybe people will like what they see, compliment, and then figure out it’s part of the exhibition. I need 6 people for that.
Then I have two ensembles to actually walk down the runway holy fucking fuck. One for a guy, one for a girl.
SO YES.
TL;DR: I need six models for an exhibition at school, and two more to actually walk a runway (eight total). People who volunteer get in free, including free food, but anyone who wants to attend can get put on my list and get in for like $10 so it’s not bad! It's a fancy wine-and-cheese style event.
