Purple Sash Benefit

This past Saturday night I modeled in a runway show for the YWCA's Purple Sash Benefit. There a local, upscale store here in Oklahoma City, Balliets, and they provided the beautiful clothes from Lourdes Chavez's collection. Ms. Chavez was even flown in to attend the event and help organize the show. The event was beautifully decorated in pale turquoise with silver sequined accents. Our runway was covered with a white carpet. I absolutely love runway! Even will all the frantic quick changes, it is my favorite type of modeling job.
Hair and makeup artists from Schardein and Company salon were on hand to do our hair and makeup. They did a beautiful job! Heather Rouba's modeling agency, The Anthony David Agency, had several models in the show. She helped coordinate the show and helped us all know when to get out on the stage. It is utter chaos backstage at runway shows and she did a wonderful job of not making that obvious to the crowd!Miss Oklahoma USA (and 1st runner-up at Miss USA), Morgan Woolard, was modeling in the show with me.
Model Dyan Rode and I have been modeling together for a million years! It is always so good to see her at these jobs. She is a former Miss OK USA too! I think she said '87?
