Model and actress Sakshi Pradhan has been selected as a one of the show stoppers for the FMN Fashion Pageant – the World’s Longest Fashion Show to be held in Mumbai on 30th June. Mumbai-based fashion designer Umair Zafar is already working on a special collection for the event. Over 2000 outfits and designs will be displayed at the FMN Fashion Pageant, say sources.
The World’s longest Fashion Show – the FMN Fashion Pageant will be held in Mumbai on 30th June 2012. 75 fashion designers, about 300 male and female models and about 25 choreographers are expected to participate in the event to create a new World Record or break an existing record. Says Andy John of Futuristic Media Network – the organizers of the event: “We have written to the Guinness World Records (GWR) for details regarding the World’s longest or continuous fashion show. To the best of our knowledge, the longest fashion show record is for 14 hours. We will attempt to break that record. In case the GWR does not have such a record category, we will set a new record for the longest continuous fashion show. Our application is pending with the GWR and we are awaiting their feedback. Fashion designers, models, choreographers, accessory designers and manufacturers and others from the fashion industry who would like to be part of this event are requested to check out http://futuristicmedianetwork.wordpress.com for the latest updates or contact editor.fmn at gmail.com
“We are doing it for charity. To support Indian tailors, small designers, artisans, craftsmen, etc. The theme is Indian Traditional Outfits. The 75 designers will attempt to create and display designs and outfits including footwear, headgear and accessories from the 26 Indian states,” he explained, adding that Umair Zafar and 10 others designers have already signed up for this event.
An adjudicator from the Guinness World Records will be present during the entire event and will verify the facts of the record before handing over the official certificate for the World Record, said Andy John.
