| Bronze Elegance 2014 Executive Board |
Most of my friends and social media followers already know how I feel about the show Scandal (not really my cup off tea). So when my best friend Shayla approached me about the show I was slightly apprehensive. However after attending a few events, talking to executive board members and checking out the website this is definitely not a fashion show I want to miss.
When you think about fashion shows you are probably thinking about skinny girls, straight hair, athletic men, etc. But the Bronze Elegance fashion show is a lot different from other fashion shows of its kind.
"The mission of BRONZE ELEGANCE is to break stereotypes through creating a show in which both models and students participating behind the scenes display the true diversity of university of Michigan by representing different shapes, sizes, ethnicities, religions, and backgrounds. Members will also work closely with Multicultural Youth Striving To Incorporate Cohesiveness (MYSTIC) council of Alice Lloyd Residence Hall." -Bronze Elegance
Not only does Bronze Elegance embrace diversity in several different fields but it also promotes philanthropy through charity. ALL of the proceeds made by Bronze Elegance are donated to Partners In Health an organization that gives preferential option of healthcare to those in need around the world.
Bronze Elegance has planned several events leading up to the shows premiere including a Skin and Make up consultation featuring a Mac rep and Mary Kay rep (who happened to be my soror :-*). Both reps talked about healthy skin care and make up application. Bronze Elegance also promoted small businesses by featuring sponsors for the event.One sponsor was Cool Club Clothing a student run black owned business. Bronze Elegance will also be partnering with The She is Project a social and experiential movement that celebrates these women that have successfully made their mark, and educates others on how they can do the same via social media and beyond. These two organizations will be working together for a pre show event.
This show promises to be a night of fashion, networking, entertainment, and fun. The students a part of Bronze Elegance have been working very hard. Diverse group of models, philanthropy, networking and fashion, sounds like a way to spend my Sunday night! The event will be held at 7:30 p.m April 13th at Palmer Commons: Great Lakes Room 100 Washtenaw Ave. Ann Arbor, MI 48109. Please refer to Bronze Elegance website for more info. See you there.
