Fashion Show - this was put together by
our Laurel class. The girls planned this well in advance to help the other young
women get a better idea of "modest dress". The Laurels modeled clothes of their
own (skirts, dresses, bathing suits, pants, and shorts). They did a great job!
We had a wonderful, college age speaker who encouraged the girls to make wise
choices with their dress and standards. It was a really fun, uplifting evening.

Newspaper Modesty
Paper Dolls - Talk about the
importance of modest clothing. Using various old magazines, have
the girls cut out modest clothing. Cut out paper dolls and put on modest
clothes.
Sewing - Teach your girls the basic in sewing. Here are some projects
to start with:
pajama pants, pillowcases, simple elastic skirt, beach bag,
apron, throw pillows, quillow, jean quilt etc.
Shopping Modestly
Shopping Modestly - Talk about
church standards of dress and how this shows respect our bodies. Then go
to a clothing store and have a scavenger hunt for modest clothes. Pair
the girls up and tell them to find 2 out of 3 of the following outfits:
beach attire, church, casual/school. Then the girls try on the clothes
and model them because sometimes clothes that are modest on the rack
might not be when you put it on. Basically Help the girls learn that
dressing modestly still allows you to be in style but might need some
creativity and right choices. (Idea by Shana Windham)

Spring Fling - I
just wanted to share with you a "Fashion Show" idea I've done in two different
wards. We called it the "Spring Fling". As leaders we collected (just about
anything) for a couple of months prior: crepe paper, bows, napkins, straws,
yarn, paper cups, butcher paper, etc. And, we brought a box of large black
garbage bags. We put two girls with moms in each room (for laughs and
support) and the girls designed a dress for their mom. They were wild and fun.
We then had a fashion show. We made a little form for the girls to fill out with
info like: dress name, models name and then the girls wrote the description of
the dress. We had a person act as our hostess for the evening and read the
descriptions as each mom went down the fashion show ramp. We then took pictures
of the mom and daughters together. It was great fun and we were surprised
that some of the shy moms came out of their shells and surprised us! (Idea by
