Starting a fashion show without knowing anything about creating a fashion show is a disaster waiting to happen.

This piece is a combination of the possible hints and details that should be put into consideration when planning a fashion show.

How to make fashion shows a success 

When planning a fashion show the following are essential. 

1. Models
2. Location
3. Music
4. Lightning 
5. Photography 
6. Mirror
7. Hair and makeup

Models

The first thing you need when putting up a fashion show is to scout for fashion models. You need people to walk the runway showing your designs and styles. 

Modeling is one of the most applied jobs and it’s easy to get models but one thing that should be taken into consideration is how well the models know how to walk the runway. 

Models are important fractions of the fashion show so getting models is a must. However, it is important to screen girls and get them to get into your creative designs. 

Location 

Another important factor that should be put into consideration is the location of the fashion show, how conducive it is, and how well it can contain both the audience, designers, and models. 

Having backstage is equally important as bad stages are where the models change into outfits and finishing touches are made.

Music

A Fashion show is incomplete without music. Music is just another way of enhancing the show and music has its way of lighting up the atmosphere.

Everyone is a fan of good music. It helps cover some loopholes and helps in entertaining the audience.

That’s why you need to invest in getting a good Disc Jockey and popular music if you want to put together an excellent fashion show.

Lightning 

The use of lightning in a fashion show can not be overemphasized. Of course, you can not hold a fashion show in a dark environment or without light. The audience needs to see your designs. 

To put up a perfect fashion show endeavor to get different shades and colors of light to project your designs in style.

Photography

Fashion shows and photography goes hand in hand. Photographers take amazing shots that capture styles at the right angles. 

These images are important because it gives you visibility and good photography takes you into fashion magazines and catalogs.

Mirror

As minor as this may seem, having multiple mirrors is important for putting up a fashion show. 

Mirrors help you to see what you want the audience to see and allow you to detect some errors thereby gaining room for adjustments. 

Hair and makeup 

This is the final process that should be checked when planning a fashion show. 

Hair and makeup are descriptive fashion. This helps to tell stories and add more color and style to your creatives as a fashion designer.
