According to Valeri Reeves, “Anyone can create a trend, I want to create a keepsake…”. Reaves is a fashion designer, author, and child advocate … wife, mother and grandmother … among many facets. She is the founder of MyMeApparel Ready-to Wear Fashions, editor of the MyMeApparel Fashion News Blog and model booker of the MyMeApparel Faces of ME! Model Booking Services.
Between Reeves many hats she manages to make sure she is still active in giving back to the community. Through doing what she loves, Reeves has made it a point to incorporate a charity fashion show to 10 Georgia State Licensed Family Child Care Providers. Each recipient will receive a play center, such as a reading center, a dramatic play center, an outdoor play center, small/large manipulative center, etc. The next tour stop is scheduled for Thursday, September 22, 2011,7pm-11pm, doors open at 6:30pm. It will be located Downtown Conference Center, 6701 Church Street, Douglasville, GA 30134.
On the third week of September of every year, MyMeApparel hosts an annual fashion show specific to MyMeApparel Ready to Wear Fashion House and Model Booking Service. It is an opportunity to showcase only MyMeApparel garments and accessories, a piece from the MyMeApparel Expressions of ME! Apprentice, the MyMeApparel Faces of ME! models (and other models) and to identify and fund raise for the annual designated MyMeApparel Charitable Recipient.
During the 2nd Annual MyMeApparel Fashion Show & Charity it will be “A Memoir of a First Year Designer”, a bound compilation of the struggles and accomplishments, dreams-to-fruition projects, construction of garments and charitable contributions to society that Reaves has made during the first year of becoming the founder and head fashion designer of MyMeApparel, a Ready-to-Wear Fashion House and Model Booking Service, complete with color photos of garment construction, models, events, behind-the-scenes of events and photo shoots, charitable recipients, and more.
MyMeApparel Fashion Show & Charity Tour is actually the fourth of 18 scheduled fashion tour stops to take place over the next three years. The first three stops have already been completed: Columbia, South Carolina; West Palm Beach, FL; Tuscaloosa/Birmingham, AL. Each stop includes a model call, photo shoot, fashion display and local child advocacy related charitable recipient. For more information on MyMeApparel visit: www.mymeapparel.com
