Fashion for a Cause

Local teen and tween models will highlight top trends for Fall and Winter 2011 while also benefiting girlsBEST. Launched by the Women’s’ Foundation of Minnesota, girlsBEST is a grantmaking and public awareness initiative to build the economic power of girls, ages 10-18. When girls define their priorities and create change in their own lives, they expect more from themselves as adults!

The young models will showcase a variety of looks highlighting the following trends for the season:

  • Sequins on everything including pockets, hoods and sleeves!
  • Fleece-lined leggings… you don’t get more Minnesotan than that!
  • Strapless for semi-formals and BRIGHT colors like emerald green and purple
  • BIG earrings made out of lightweight materials like fine metallic leaves, sparkles and feathers.
  • Dresses paired with leggings… even for class.

A few teen models will even showcase THEIR OWN work taking it to the next level… the runway! Be sure to check out their take on fall and winter fashion!
