“In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.” Coco Chanel

French fashion designer, Coco Chanel, ruled over Parisian fashion for nearly six decades. Her quote, “In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different" is the perfect depiction for the beautiful models for Voyage to Utopia '11. 

Eager VTU '11 Models line up during practice each one ready for their run down the practice carpet runway

Each Print and Runway model represents something different. No two are the same and each will bring to the runway a new personality and their own spice to the garments. Monochromatically themed models are boring!!! Fashion is far too dimensional for it to be displayed only one way.


This past Tuesday, Nov. 2, Model practice was held with Model coordinators Justin Rice Moore and Courtney Kemp at the helm. Both coordinators have modeling experience in fashion shows on and off campus and are divesting their vast knowledge into these eager models.

Practice will take place every Tuesday in the Lee Center Atrium in preparation for the big day!

Again, CONGRATULATIONS to all the models who tryed out and were chosen to be a part of this Voyage. It won't be an easy one, there will be bumps along the way, and definitely sore toes, but the road to Utopia is never an easy one.

I am looking forward to working with each of you when I return from Jordan.
