3. The Concept
Rockapulco
…Embrace your exotic beauty…
The Five Sisters, a company founded by Lindsey Morrison, Nicole Loizzi, Katie
Sink, Anne Haley, and Maria DuartePinheiro, is showcasing Roberto Cavalli‟s Fall
2012 RTW during the Rockapulco fashion show.
Rockapulco is inspired by the true beauty and animalistic elements of a tropical
rainforest. By researching the different aspects of the Amazon and Acapulco,
we developed our concept by the choices in venue, centerpieces, décor,
performers, and music. The show will envelope the audience into the true
environment of the rainforest with a fashion flair from Roberto Cavalli in the
exotic walls of Crystal Gardens at Navy Pier.
Thunder and lightning in the background will begin the show followed by the
musical performance of bongo and conga drummers. The drummers will be
provided by the charity we are highlighting – Rock for Kids. As the drumming
hits its peak, the large banana leaves that the audience did not notice before will
part and the models will start to walk out. Their hair is wet in a messy fishtail
braid and their make up neutral with a slight smoky eye – the animals of the
rainforest.
4. Not only will the fashion show have models walking on our “runway” made
from tube lights, Plexiglas, and Cercropia leaves, but the show will also
have acrobat performers in the closing of the show. Their make up will be
bright and colorful like the birds of the forest as they dangle from the
ceiling. During the whole show music provided by Enclave will play with the
essence of a jungle sound.
After the show, guests will enjoy a variety of desserts from the venue along
with Perrier-Jouet champagne. At this time, they may have the chance to
speak with Cavalli himself as well as purchase clothing from his collection.
