Hope in the City Fashion Show
Many years ago I called to be the runway show producer of the, HOPE IN THE CITY: Wear Your Story, a charity event held during Los Angeles Fashion Week, show. I was in awe of the line up, so many talented artist, designers, models & performers! @sir_twitch_alot was one of the dancers in this video. He was special and truly a light. I was not surprised to see how far his star rose to shine! However, I’m shocked and brokenhearted to hear that his light was snuffed out! Grief can be overwhelming, but remember feelings are indicators, not dictators. Let sadness, sorrow or even feelings of despair be an indicator that you need support not suicide. Call 988 you are not alone and you are loved! The event featured a gallery of over 50 local and professional artists and a runway fashion show of 22 established and up-and-coming designers. Each Newspaper creation is centered on the theme Wear Your Story.
So much happens behind the scenes to make any event great, but when designers are trying get models fitted in just right with delicate paper material, sometimes things don't go as planned. To create the time needed Alice came up with a quick comedy sketch for Host Hank Fortener and Host of the Emmy Nominated daytime show "The Real" Jeannie Mai to play out. They were the perfect duo to keep the audience entertained for each model to come out looking Picture perfect! (When you see Alice, ask her about that sketch sometime.)
