| Fashion show tries to raise cancer awareness (The Shorthorn) Posted: 14 Oct 2009 08:14 PM PDT
|  Cameras immediately flashed as the catwalk opened to the theme of Jay Z's "Run This Town." Onlookers crowded the sides of the Kalpana Chawla Hall courtyard as seats quickly filled for the beginning of the "Strut for a Cause" fashion show. Senior resident assistant Gabrielle Aguilar worked in unison with senior RA Wendy Okolo to create a program that entertained and informed students about breast cancer. "My job is to focus all of my programming on what I can provide for my students," Aguilar said. "Including them is natural to me, I wouldn't look anywhere else." Industrial engineering sophomore Willie Dennis walked the catwalk with confidence, chin up, shoulders back and looking straight ahead. He said he's never done something like this before, but it felt like everyday walking to him. He did it because Okolo asked him, but had a good time, he said. "I felt pretty comfortable on the catwalk," Dennis said. Okolo said she saw Brazos House's bra bridge, where residents hung underwear from trees in front of the house to promote breast cancer and testicular cancer awareness, but wanted to add something else to the cause. "We're making sure that men and women know about this," Okolo said. "This could be your mother or your sister, who might need this information." Models strutted to the show's themes — party, fall and pink wear — in various poses and outfits throughout the night. Cody Early, international business and French junior, sported a dressy casual look in all three categories. "It was really exhilarating, walking down the catwalk," Early said. The crowd piled up to almost three times the expected 37 chairs set aside for the event. Students stayed around for additional info from models and sponsors, such as Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Psychology sophomore Billy Stevenson was event emcee with an original musical performance by alumnus Peter Mutsemi. Education sophomore Elizabeth Kellie said the show was wonderful, and it being for a good cause made it all the better.
"I thought the singer was really nice," she said. "He had a really good voice." Only registered users can write comments. Powered by AkoComment Tweaked Special Edition v.1.4.6 This content has passed through fivefilters.org. | |
