From pretty dresses to preppy shorts there was a huge variety of clothing styles featured at the Trumbull High Senior Fashion Show on May 1. Lights flashed and sequins sparkled. The seniors strutted down the runway with pride and fierce attitude.
Senior emcees Adam Angelucci and Prithvi Mahesh dominated the scene with quick jokes and witty remarks. There was no mistake that the crowd was enjoying themselves immensely as they laughed along. Models lined up backstage ready for Angelucci and Mahesh to announce those coming to the catwalk, along with their college decisions. Most of the seniors managed to remain composed while they waited to show off their outfits.
After the long anticipated moment of walking the runway and having fun, senior Victoria Carter states, “It’s fun because Privy and Adam did such a good job announcing for all us: messing around with what they were saying, making it really funny for the crowd, and for us to be on stage, it was more comfortable. Having everyone clap for us, it was a really fun experience, and I loved doing it.”
This night will be cherished by Kendall Szulimowski who was asked to prom by close friend, Dan Isaac, in the fashion show.
According to Szulimowski, “The fashion show overall was a really good experience. It raised money for post-prom, which is a major part of our senior year. We just had fun with it. A bunch of different people participated. Hopefully next year there’s more participants because it’s a good event and it was a lot of fun.”
The members of the audience clapped in approval of the models and the clothing choices. Spectator and senior Ginnila Perez, was unsure what to expect from the fashion show that night. When asked about the attire, Perez says, “I think it’s good because it shows off everyone’s style, it looks cool. Everyone who’s walking with their friends, they all look like they’re having a good time.”
This event was a community highlight for the class of 2015. Angelucci states, “The fashion show was crazy, the atmosphere was alive, I love it. It was so beautiful in so many ways that I cannot even fathom to believe. You take the community together, put us all here, we’re all hyped up. We’re all a family and I feel like an eagle.”
Future seniors should continue to keep this tradition for years to come. The seniors can participate in multiple walks down the runway or choose to make one appearance. The music is chosen by the models and runway is provided, but seniors provide their own clothes and makeup. Memories will be created for a lifetime. There will be no regret because everyone across the board enjoyed the show.
