Flores De La Noche





 The Venue in Minneapolis MN
Oct.28th 2014
Hosted by: New American Model's Emika Martin


I was given the pleasure to follow fashion director Emika Martin around for the ENTIRE day while she set up and hosted her fashion show "Flores De La Noche".  Being another fashion director it is definitely a pleasure to shadow Emika and learn in her footsteps.

The Fashion Show

Fire Dancer

The show opened with a fire dancer.!

Imagine baton twirling to an extreme,
that is exactly what this was.! Batons with fire burning on the ends. 

Ms. Fiona Flameteaser is the fire dancer and she was impeccably graceful with the flames, as if they were to touch her she wouldn't have felt a thing.

Personally my biggest fear besides spiders, is definitely fire, and the fact that Fiona was able to just whip the flames around like no biggie, was SCARY.!

As all good writers are taught always open with an attention-getter,   a fire dancer was the absolute attention-getter. The adudience was in complete awe.

 The first runway had a lot of people's mouth watering with the shirtless male models all representing "Knight's Chamber"

Although the sugar skull make-up did hide their beautiful faces, I will tell you that all of the men were wonderfully handsome and very polite.

As one of my friends whom came to the show said;
"I love going out and seeing man candy"

This my friends was definitely man candy!

The best part was they didn't disappear during the show they stayed out and helped each model up and down the runway just like real gentlemen would.!
