On Friday Reia's collection was being showcased in the SCAD Fashion Show. Even before the school year had begun in 2018, Reia very much wanted to be a part of her Senior Class Fashion Show. However she felt that most of her classmates were way more talented than her and she was unlikely to make it. So much so, she did not want us to be in Savannah during the event.
Ivy and I decided that we should be there. Especially if she didn't make it. To give her support and to let her know that there are a zillion fashion shows ahead. As it turned out, we didn't need to do any of that. Reia's collection was amongst those picked and we could attend and bask in some of the reflected glory from her.
The town of Savannah is always filled with SCAD hoardings and posters. And we were able to find quite a few for the fashion events. Freia didn't want to be left alone and so she decided to join us and arrived on the morning of the event.
Reia had designed shirts for the 3 of us to wear at the event. The theme of here collection was "06897" the Wilton zip code, the place where her fashion journey began. And the school that taught her that it's okay to be dyslexic. You still can shine in any field you choose. And she chose fashion.
The 3 of us set off for the event and arrived an hour early so we could get ringside seats. Seems like all the other guests had the exact same idea and we were lucky to get the last few from row seats.
All of the outfits on display were really good, although I'm probably biased. When Reia's models walked down the ramp, I felt that they were the best - definitely biased. I was beaming in pride at what Reia had managed to do.
But she couldn't have done it without 3 people she calls her assistants, "Tiffany, Caroline and Nikita". In my mind, they are her guardian angels. Always there. Even when she didn't need them. Thank You - Tiff, Caroline, Nikita.
Time for me to shut up and for you to have a look. And make your own judgements. And if its anything less than "Awesome", I don't want to hear about it.
