The student models, chosen by EnspiRED through a modeling call at the beginning of the year, will pose in various clothing designs.

New to this year’s fashion show will be three levels of tickets available for purchase: Premium VIP, VIP and General Admission. Premium VIP guests can attend a pre-show reception, where they will be treated to a catered meal, in addition to live musical entertainment by three singers, two of which are University students. Both Premium VIP and VIP guests will be given preferred seating, as well as a “Swag Box” of gift items. The pre-show reception begins at 6 p.m. and doors open at 7 p.m. for VIP and General Admission guests.

Collier explained the decisions behind adding the Premium VIP, VIP and General Admission.

“Last year, we hit capacity. We didn’t have enough seats. This year, we added the pre-show reception because that was another aspect of doing something different and another way to showcase more artists as well,” he said.

For both Jones and Collier, anticipation for the show is blended with excitement.

“I’m excited to see how it looks, to see if we sell out, and I’m hoping to give a good amount of money to the charity,” Collier said.

Jones added, “This will be the best thing that hits Michigan. That’s something that we do in EnspiRED. We push the edges. We dare to be different.”
