Your Task:1) Choose a photo of yourself or a friend or family member. (Make sure you have permission to use the photo)2) Picture this person walking down the runway at our MyEC Fashion Show.3) Write the transcript that the announcer would say as your model walks down the runway. Be sure to include:a) the name of the model (this can be fictional)b) a general description of the "collection" (see categories).c) a specific description of each detail of clothing (including accessories; see examples)4) Use the tag #fashionshow5) Come back to this blog and share a link to your model.6) Leave comments for all of the fashion show contestants. Who deserves to win?Optional: Record the audio of your transcript and upload it to your MyEC player.*Use one model per blog post. You can add as many blogs as you want under the tag fashionshow!Useful Language for Writing Challenge #21:Verbsto sportto wearto be decked out into show offto have onto donto modelNounsjewelryfootwearclothingaccessoriesouterwear (coats, gloves)hatsClothing MaterialcottonpolyestersilkcorduroydenimCategoriesevening wearseasonal (summer wear, winter wear…)business wearcasual weardance wearsleep wearAdjectivesdesignertightlooseglamourousmodernchicvintageflowingoriginalone-of-a-kindOther details to includecolours and shadesbrand namesdesignersfitpriceIllustrated clothesIllustrated accessoriesMy Example

Here comes the tooth fairy, sporting a new item from the Fairies 2010 Spring Workwear Collection. The fairy's fuchsia bodysuit is covered with a long flowy chiffon skirt in purple, indigo and gold. The skirt is accessorized with a cheerful gold butterfly at the centre of the waistline. Our famous fairy is sporting a plastic halo of artificial daisies and lilies. Her pink designer tights are slightly worn, but durable. The outfit is finished off with a pair of leather Bloche ballet slippers, perfect for tiptoeing in and out of children's rooms in the middle of the night. The entire outfit is available in size petite only and can be purchased at your local fairy boutique for approximately $100 Canadian dollars.Listen to the first track below.
