On Feb. 13, CMA hosted a student-organized fashion show to highlight women’s empowerment.

On Feb. 13, young women gathered together to enjoy an all women's fashion show to highlight women’s empowerment. 

The show was conducted at Communication & Media Arts High School. The show was run by CMA seniors Zaria Newton and Stephine Jenkins.

Newton aspires to be a fashion stylist which struck her to do this fashion show. She wanted to show off her talent while having a fun event for the women of CMA.

With the help of the ex Dream Team director Nadeen Alaouie, she made the event one to be remembered. Jenkins, Newton and Alaouie found a group of models and started their mission. The team stayed after school a couple days out the week to practice the show and create outfits. It took them a month to get everything together.

They had several panelists, including CMA’s Jalesa Moore. They rented out a company to help them set up the venue. They enjoyed snacks, laughter and a whole lot of fierceness.

All 13 women looked beautiful as they walked down the runway in all of their unique outfits.
