On April 10, Mu Sigma Upsilon hosted a Four Seasons Fashion show contest. It was a fundraiser which showcased various seasonal fashion sets worn by males and females.
The models who participated represented six Fraternities/ Sororities: Iota, Kappa, TKE, PSP, OPC and MSU (Mu Sigma Upsilon did not participate, but organized the event) in friendly competition.
The three chosen judges, Jessica Vasquez, Lucy Cuba and Amani S Jennings, critiqued the models in four categories: Creativity, Personality, Clothes and Swag.
In addition, the six contenders had to incorporate their fraternities/sororities colors into the batch. The categories were scored on a range of one to five; the group that scored the most won.
The first category season, fall, waltzed on the catwalk sporting trendy outfits. The favored outfit, the cotton sweater vest with white fur, was worn amongst several models. Each model displayed personality as they posed for the audience. The host announced the winter collection. The males sported sleek trench coats, winter caps and scarves, one went as far to twirl a red and white cane with finesse. The girls equally exemplified style with knee high leather boots, knitted warm cardigans with slim, fitted pants to complete the look.
Next group was the Spring category. A pastel of bright colors like pink and yellow make their way on stage. A group of models from OPC stole the stage with fitted skinny jeans and tight short sleeved shirts.
The crowd hollered as the summer models arrived and dominated the catwalk. The stage was filled with models showing off in their tropical shorts and cut off midriff shirts, tie dyed tanks accompanied with a nice pair of shades.
The pounding music, followed by the encouraging applause of the crowd contributed to the loud and proud poses of many of the models.
The two winners were Iota in first place and TKE in second. This being the organization’s second year to host the fashion show, the response overall regarding the fashion show was positive.
The success of the fashion show is surely to guarantee many more to come.
