< The view opens on a brightly lit feracht-walk, where the who's who of fashion gather to showcase their ingenuity and build buzz on new designs. >

< A glitz-n-glam outfitted Shen strides confidently through a panel of curtains at the rear of the stage and strikes a pose. After a burst of camera flash, she resumes her movement - strutting aggressively up the catwalk until she's directly before the camera, at which point she addresses the audience directly. >

It's time... for... Fashion Week.

< Lights lining the feracht-walk and ceiling pulse in bursts for a dazzling effect as the event name is announced. Even the model seems momentarily thrown off, but she quickly recovers. >

Now welcoming all spacers to the event of the season! Tidy up your bots and stations, this is your chance to prove your mettle as you compete against the best in the sector.

< Stretching her limbs with effortless grace, the model begins to show off the various pieces adorning her form as she speaks. A swish of fabric, a toss of the jewelry, a pop of buttons - The camera is absolutely eating it UP. >

Designers are challenged to craft a full outfit or costume ensemble for the event for the chance to win fabulous prizes! Designers may either model their own 'fits or request a professional model serve looks on their behalf. Paid models will be compensated with 20,000 marks per modeled 'fit.

Winners will be selected via a merit score consisting of a base 'fit value from the judge(s), an effort value for the modeling, and an applause value for general crowd enthusiasm.
