MODEL COORDINATOR




Allow me to introduce you to the newest member of Santa Fe Fashion Week; Blake Elizabeth Lewis, SFFW’s Model Coordinator!  Blake 23 years old is originally from Georgia but now resides in the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico.

When asked what a Model Coordinators Job was, I already had the answer but it was nice to have Blake’s insight into the job description, Blake described it thus; to maintain communication with all models, as far as dates, Meetings, run throughs, auditions...etc.  To keep everyone organized and on track behind stage during the actual Fashion event.  Models go to Blake with any and all questions or concerns and she tries to reach everyone’s needs the best to her ability.

When asked what she plans to bring to Santa Fe Fashion Week?  Blake’s answer was that she would bring a lot of positive energy, as the Models can talk to her about whatever.  Blake keeps a notebook of creative idea’s to refer to for other events as well.

RUDYLEE JR. FASHION DESIGNER

 
Allow me to introduce you to the newest member of Santa Fe Fashion Week, Rudylee Jr. who just happens to hail from the state of New Mexico, to be specific Santa Cruz, NM.  Rudylee  Jr.has no formal design education, but has been featured at Houston’s Fashion Week, therefore there is talent, he gives credit to his Grandmother and other seamstresses for his amazing talent, stating that he has been designing clothes since the tender age of ten, now the designer is twenty-six years old.

Rudylee Jr.’s aesthetic changes with every new collection, giving us a new outlook on fashion as it should be with fashion. His last two collections which debuted at Houston’s Fashion Week gave us a glimpse at class with a sexy edge, the collection called V.I.P. along with his *Evolution* collection which was created by combining strong color contrast and unusual draping and cuts.

When asked about the future of Rudylee Fashion Designer, his dream is to be mass produced and to add a men and children’s line to better reach the masses.

My hat is off to Rudylee Jr. and I wish him abundant luck in his endeavors.
