The Prom Fashion Show will be held on Sunday, February 25th at the WG Middle School. To participate as a model you must be a West Geauga HS Senior and you must be available from 9am-4pm on the day of the event.
Participants will model formal wear as our MC for the event provides a description of your outfit.
For the girls - you can wear any formal dress/outfit that you might have or can borrow one from someone you know. It does not need to be what you are wearing to prom! Examples: formal gown, pantsuit, etc. The After Prom Committee will also be requesting donations (or loans) of dresses/outfits. On fitting day (tentatively scheduled for Feb 3rd) we will ask you to choose from any of the available dresses/outfits that we collect so that you can find something that you are comfortable in and that you like. You will provide your own accessories, but we will have hair stylists available on the day of the event if you would like to have your hair styled.
For the boys - American Commodore will provide tuxedos on loan. You will need to be measured on fitting day. (You are also more than welcome to provide your own or borrowed if you wish).
At the Fashion Show there will be vendor booths to visit before/during/after the show along with many raffle baskets that will be auctioned off. The event will be open to family, friends and the community to attend. All proceeds from the show will go towards the WG Class of 2024 After Prom!
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the After Prom Committee: Angela Kercher akercher@att.net OR Stephanie Gruber stephandboys3@gmail.com
