Reuse on the Runway: A Night of Fashion, Costume, and Drag

Austin Creative Reuse (ACR) is holding our first ever Reuse on the Runway on November 12th! This will be a community fashion show for creators including: fashion, cosplay, Halloween costumes, historical costumes, fantasy or other genre costumes, drag, and more! We want to offer an inclusive, no judgment environment to show off your outfits and costumes, and to walk the runway as a model. The application deadline is August 15 for designers and models. For designers, we have an initial limit of 3 looks per designer, with a potential for more depending on the number of applications we receive. We want everyone to be able to participate, the only reason we will not accept a designer is because we have limited time for the show. No modeling experience is expected of anyone. Designers are encouraged to model outfits or costumes themselves, or have friends be your models. The show will be in blocks by category, so if you have 3 cosplay looks, there will not be time to change during that block of the show so you will need models. There will be a short break between categories, so if you have looks in different categories there may be time to model it all yourself. Model applications are for anyone who is interested in being a model but not being a designer to match with designers who need models. It will be between designers and models to arrange things like test fittings ACR will host the runway inside of the fenced-in side lot, and will invite the public to support our local reuse artist community. Backstage will be inside the center. All areas, including the runway, will be ADA compliant. If you have any other accessibility questions or concerns, please let us know how we can help. Where: 2005 Wheless Lane, Austin TX 78723 Fees: Reuse on the Runway will be free to participate. Guest admission will be by donation. Stay tuned for VIP and sponsorship opportunities! Requirements: All looks shown in the fashion show must incorporate some element of reuse. Participants must be able to attend the rehearsal on October 15. To apply: The application for designers and models has closed. Missed out? Consider volunteering! THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST! WE CAN’T WAIT TO WORK WITH YOU!
