After a year of planning our event, we were successful.

When we arrived, we checked out the space and set up.

Ooooh, such pretty hair, Dunenka!

Dionne making our presence known!

Alumni, staff, and friends came to help us prepare.

Jie, Nick, and Nesto tackle the banner.

As the crowd gathered, we put on our makeup and transformed ourselves.

Michele loops Vivian's long hair into flowing braids.

Carmen: schoolgirl at work!! :-)

Rita makes Cris sooo pretty...

Cris doesn't recognize himself!

Rita and Vivian opened up the event strongly.

"Hello, and welcome to Self Conscious..."

Dionne read her exceptional poetry.

"When can some of us look at ourselves and not be self-conscious, but consciously conscious?"

Our guest performers, Colored Ink, got the audience thinking critically about our fashion show.

"Can you feel me?"

"Do you hear what I hear?"

We started down the runway...

Carmen and Stephanie: schoolgirls!!
School never looked so cool.

Dionne and Cris: business people!!

Anthony: hippie!!
Peace, love, and understanding.

Michele and Maura: glamour queens!!
Oooh! Who's pretty? Who's pretty?

Marvelous Maura goes all out in glamour!

Vivian and Ernesto: cattle wranglers!!
Vivacious Vivian steps in as sheriff.

Energizing Ernesto strolls into the saloon...

Curtain calls!!!

The first group takes their bows.

Our fashion show was interrupted by a very special video, hosted by Fandanga.

We finished, strutting tall and no-fall down the runway, with...

Bows...

Yvea and Anthony: rappers!!
Lil Ant and Yvea Playa show their shine.

Rita: punk rocker!!
Rockin Rita comes out in all the glory of Everescence.

Vivian and Cady: puddle hoppers!!

Dunenka, Maura, and Cris: cheerleaders and jock!!!
Dancing Dunenka sends a spark!!

Cheerleader Maura roots on our star player, Cristhian.

Curtain calls!!

Bows...

Bows!!!

Yvea did some spoken word.

"Lies to deceive our very eyes about what's right, wrong, and fashion ties us into an inescapable bind..."

We left the audience with a powerful message, to "Think before you buy buy buy."

We thank everyone who made this event possible.
