Like to Reconstruct Vintage Items? Here's your chance to show it off in Roanoke

Ever dream of being a fashion designer? Why not start with just altering some of that stuff you got at the thrift shop?

It's called Vintage Reconstitution, its a very real thing in fashion and can be great starting point before moving onto designing your own clothes from scratch.

If you live near Roanoke, here's your change to try your hand at designing your own Vintage Reconstruct look, and have it shown to a audience.

My friends at the Goodwill are having their first ever, design contest for this years SECOND RUNWAY, which is one of their annual fundraising events. If you're like me, you're probably sick of seeing all these so called "fashion shows" around town with borrowed clothing from Macy's, so not only am I super excited about this, but hope it sparks an interest in aspiring designers to stop-aspiring and just start making, showing, and selling here in Roanoke.

Head over to the Goodwill of the Valley's website for more info on the design contest, I might make a few looks to submit myself. Happy Thrifting!
