Sat 5/28 @ 6PM
Fifteen middle and high school students have worked hard to bring you the 2nd Annual Dangerously Authentic Youth Fashion Show on Sat 5/28. Presented by DOSIR, this fashion show celebrates the creativity, poise and grace of these young women. The show is a positive force in East Cleveland, showcasing talent in an area that’s too easily written off. The show will feature a number of styles, including handmade fashions created out of household items. Plus: singing, poetry and dance choreography all performed by youth participants. This is much more than your average fashion show.
Some background on DOSIR and the vital role it plays for youth in East Cle:
“Founded in 2009 by young adults who where unsatisfied with the activities available to youth in their community, DOSIR was created to allow youth the space to freely express themselves through their artistic abilities in the form of dance, poetry, fashion design and modeling. Participants met weekly after school to practice for their day in the spotlight, learning about modeling, poise, and ‘the walk.’ More importantly, these weekly sessions offered a safe place for the youth to express themselves while learning how to become confident young women. Guest speakers led in-depth discussions that focused on self esteem, education, career choices, teen pregnancy, and more.”
