Evans Size 14+ Model Search 2011: Liverpool
Last weekend Evans packed up and headed to Liverpool to continue our hunt for the next plus size supermodel with our Size 14+ Model Search 2011 and to take part in Liverpool Fashion Week.
On Thursday night we showcased our Evans Autumn/Winter collection at Liverpool Fashion Week, with 12 incredible plus size models strutting their stuff on the catwalk at chic Newzbar. The models were all ages, heights and sizes and showed perfectly styled and put together looks from Evans. Not to be outdone, the audience was also looking great with some very stylish people in attendance. The Evans black skater dress (above) was a big hit, and it’s easy to see why! To view all the pictures from the Liverpool Fashion Week and to shop the looks, head over to the Evans facebook page.
We were back in Liverpool city centre on Saturday when we had the Models1 scouts in-store at Evans, on hand to help us search for our size 14+ models. The turnout was fantastic, with so many beautiful plus size girls all competing to be crowned the new plus size model for each of Evans body shapes: Pear, Busty, Hourglass and Apple. Do you think we may have met a potential winner?
The model search moves to Gateshead Metro Centre this Saturday 29th October, so come and chat to our model scouts between 11am-3pm. If you can’t make it to store, why not enter online - you never know, you could be one of our winners.
