En Vogue unmasks faces for Grand Finale
KATHMANDU, Sept 25: Amid music blaring through the speakers at Club Déjà Vu, Durbar Marg, 67 participants for ‘Republica My City Presents En Vogue Fashion Show’ were revealed on Saturday.
The show started with a bang as Puran Joshi along with Suraj Pratap Singh and other former House of Fashion (HOF) contestants—Afisha Shrestha, Rubi Maharjan and Roshani Adhikari—put together a zumba performance just before the unmasking sequences.
Though the show started late, musical band Dynamics entertained the crowd with their live performance all the while, building hype for the main event.
“We were quite excited for the event. Facing the camera and photographers made me feel like I was already a model. The whole experience was enriching and En Vogue is a great platform that will give us the necessary exposure and fame. After today, we will be working more on our walks and choreography for the grand finale,” shared Madan Shrestha, one of the participants, after the unmasking event concluded.
The aspiring models also joined the after party that was held at Déjà Vu itself.
All the participants had been training with HOF for the past four weeks, while after the unmasking event, they will undergo further training with HOF and work on their flaws for the grand finale.
Samar Deep Pradhanang, one of the contestants, said, “Our training included different personality development workshops and presentations as well as confidence building counseling sessions. Apart from group counseling, we also had one-on-one counseling sessions with the mentors. The event was as grand as we had expected it to be and the media exposure was great. It was even better to see our family members supporting us.”
Both new and experienced models had participated in the event. “The training gave us a chance to groom, while the other contestants also were a resource to learn from. Everybody here wants to be a top model and is competent, only those who can stand out will win the title,” said Albina Chhetri, another En Vogue participant.
Their three-month long journey will end on October 27 at En Vogue’s grand fashion show. Winner of the contest will get a year-long contract as the brand ambassador for HOF, informed HOF Event Director Sanjeeb Tuladhar.
