THIS IS AMERICA
FASHION SHOW
In 2017, I served as the Creative Director for Muse Clothing, a boutique based in Columbia, MO. I proposed producing a fashion show with a bold mission:
To celebrate diversity and inclusivity across race, gender, culture, and sexual orientation in the fashion industry.
With no budget and full creative control, I conceptualized, produced, and event-planned the #ThisIsAmerica Fashion Show from the ground up.
What I accomplished:
Directed and executed the entire production with $0 in expenses
Managed a team of 4 leads, 10 volunteers, and 20 models
Filled the venue to capacity with no paid advertising
Directed, wrote the script and appeared in #ThisIsAmerica fashion show commercial to place brand awareness of the fashion show on social media.
Collaborated with Long Live Entertainment to capture the show on video
Commercial filmed by Joshua Moffett, Edited by Nick Wilson.
This grassroots production was not only a success—it was a statement. I proved that with vision, leadership, and community, you can create something impactful without financial backing.
