On Wednesday, April 17, Poly will be holding its first fashion show, where clothing designed by students are then modeled by other students participating.
Jailyn Lewis, 17, decided to have her own fashion show through Long Beach sponsored by Female Leadership Academy.
With the help of many students and teachers, Lewis was able to recruit as many as 50 models and 8 designers.
With only 5 days to practice and get the entire show together, models and designers worked together to have each of their visions come to life.
As director of the show, it has been pretty intimidating getting an entire fashion show together with only five 5 days to practices.
But the energy and drive of each of the models and designers encourages Lewis to move forward.
There were many times where there were setbacks but with the help of Sarah Schol, Jewel Jackson, Patience Randall, and Chuck Taylor, and many others who helped motivate Lewis along the way, building up confident in how the show will turn out for her.
Unfortunately, in publicize the show in how Lewis intended for it didn’t workout as well, but would be happy if even 10 people showed up!
The show will feature a lot of talent with singers such as Glena Canete and Robert Chim.
With dancers including Yael Moore, Emiliano Vasquez Mendez and others. Tickets went on sale Thursday, April 11 for $5 and at the door for $10.
Support the aspiring models, designers, and brand owners at Poly’s first fashion show hosted by Jewel Jackson and Jailyn Lewis! Thanks to FLA and Schol for sponsoring this event!
