'Avant-green' fashion/art show looking for models/volunteers

Are you interested in being a model for a day? We certainly hope so!

The Hospitality Group from Monterey Peninsula College is hosting a benefit event for the Women's Services Dept. on Tuesday, March 24, 6-9pm, at the Student Center at Monterey Peninsula College. The event is called 'Avant-Green,' a fashion/art show featuring live models posing as living mannequins, displaying the latest in sustainable and chic resale clothing. We are looking for female volunteers, ages 18-35, to be living mannequins for this chic fashion event. Here's what this event would involve:

1. Being able to stand/sit/lean as a living mannequin (limited movement, no conversation) for three 20 minute intervals. You will be given a 40 minute break between each 20 minute session to relax and change.
2. Willing to wear chic, fashionable clothing from local sustainable and resale boutiques, including Haute Dame Boutique and Dress For Change.
3. Willing to have your makeup and hair styled by local artists, in a chic runway style.
4. We would need you to meet us once at one of the boutiques for a fitting, approximately 1 1/2-2 weeks prior to the event.
5. You would need to arrive at the event by 3pm on Tuesday, March 24 for makeup and hair styling.
6. You would need to provide your own shoes (flats, boots or high-heels, please bring 2-3 pairs) and nylons/tights.

We're also looking for makeup and hair artists to assist and help create the looks for our models. If you are interested in being a behind-the-scenes player, please send a photograph of your work (makeup or hair).

If you are interested in participating in this once-in-a-lifetime event, please contact Beth at jainomo@gmail.com. Please send your measurements and a current photograph. The deadline for consideration is Monday, March 9th and space is limited. We hope to see you there!
