We are still thinking about DIFFA Dallas! This year’s show was held in Dallas, Texas on March 7th at the Dallas Omni Convention Center. As the 25th show, we decided that a time time theme would best capture the spirit of the previous years. The fashion show was broken up into three segments: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow. The first segment was presented as a time hop and took you right down memory lane!.
No matter what your taste in music, there was something for everyone. While models walked in corresponding fashion to the time period, there were performers that imitated everyone from Madonna, Prince, and George MIchael up to a pop diva battle between Rhianna, Beyonce, Katy Perry, and Miley Cyrus. One of our favorite portions of the “Yesterday’s” segment was the Barbie scene! No better way to take a trip down memory lane to your childhood!
The next segment was the “Today” piece and all of the pieces we graciously donated by Traffic LA.
The last segment ended with our Tomorrow segment. This futuristic scene opened with a variety of body painted models who walked in between the majestic performance of the Dallas Black Dance Theater. Models were interspersed between the dancers and body painters wearing designs by Esé Azénabor and spectacular LED wigs.
The ending featured 4 maidens wearing matching dresses of white which were designed by John Ahrens with head pieces by Noel Rodriguez. The finale was a lovely gown by Michael Faircloth with a matching white peacock headpiece also by Noel Rodriguez, modeled by Carlotta Lennox.
We cannot thank everyone enough for all of their help, support, and assistance to make this show possible. This one is going down in the books!
Thank you Thomas Garza for all of the images!
