Make-up Artists will be available for advice or a touchup prior to the fashion show! Whether you want a natural look or full on glamour, someone will be there to help you make it happen. |
This doesn't mean you can't wear your own clothes, or can't do your own make-up! This is an opportunity for some pampering and help with getting ready for your entrance on to the cat-walk by some of the finest and most experienced vendors in our community.
Are you ready to walk the cat-walk? If you are, check out our event page for the full weekend schedule and instructions on how to sign-up for the Fashion Show.
If you're not ready to be in a Fashion Show just yet, that is okay! You can still come and be a part of the celebration. Cheer your message board friends on as they walk the cat-walk and celebrate being alive, watch them stomp it out and bring forth their individuality and changing bodies! Keep in mind, not only are they walking for themselves, they're out there walking for each and every one of us in the wls community! Ready to Support Them? >>
