Rakia's Style Nation: A Look Behind the Scenes of La Vie En Rose

 

Friday, December 3

The University of the Arts

Dorrance Hamilton Hall

320 South Broad Street

 

Once again, it’s time for Philadelphia’s fashionable elite to rock the runway—and you’re invited! The Evoluer House will host its 3rd annual fashion show and cocktail reception, La Vie En Rose. But, it’s much more than your typical night of glitz and glam—La Vie En Rose is a fashion show with a cause and several of today’s noted celebrity stylists have teamed up to bring you a fabulous night of fashion.

 

Meet the Style Team:

Cheryl Ann Wadlington  

Producer

Micah Lamar  

Celebrity Fashion Stylist

Debra Ginyard 

Celebrity Fashion Stylist

Anthony Jones 

Celebrity Makeup Artist

Darya Latham

Celebrity Makeup Artist

 

This extraordinary show will give you a taste of high fashion as well as stylish everyday wear under the creative direction of celebrity stylist Micah Lamar. I met up the Founder and Executive Director of The Evoluer House, Cheryl Ann Wadlington, and she gave me an exclusive peek behind the scenes of La Vie En Rose.

 

La Vie En Rose is part of the mission of The Evoluer House, a non-profit organization that assists with the nurturing and development of young African American girls. The organization looks to strengthen young girls over a twelve-week youth empowerment program designed to flourish the mental and physical aspects of their lives. Tres Chic!  So, come live your life in pink, or as the French say, La Vie En Rose!

 

P.S. – Tickets will be sold at the door, so try not to be too fashionably late.
