THE SHOW
The premier edition of the Best Foot Forward Fashion Show is organised in association with the Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos and hosted by Sacred Heart Catholic Church Apapa. It will have glamour and music with over 1000 attendees.
Where and When?
The Show will hold at Sacred Heart Hall, 91 Marine Road, Apapa, Lagos on Monday October 1, 2012 at 3pm.
Vision
The vision of the BFF Fashion Show is to become the reference point of fashion with morals; showing that fashion is not about immorality, that you can be fashionable, stylish and fabulous without hurting God, humanity and your community. In a sentence, turning fashion victims into Style Icons.
Mission
Fashion Shows are glamorous events that provide a platform for designers, models, stylists and other creative to display their artistic skills.
The BFF Fashion Show will leverage on uses that to achieve the following objectives:
Stop indecent and inappropriate dressing in churches and other public places by providing appropriate fashion direction to youths and adults alike
Upholding Morals in a society that is fast growing but waning in morals;
Help youths discover their latent potentials by empowering them through fashion schools that offer training courses;
Skill acquisition and development
Why this idea will work
The Churches approach so far had been to paste banners that preach against indecent dressing. And they don’t show mercy on violators of their dress code, as they use them as topics of discussion; send them out of the church in an embarrassing manner. But, there is a gulf in their approach because no one is guiding them on WHAT TO WEAR WHEN AND HOW, they are only concerned about WHAT NOT TO WEAR.
The BFF Fashion Show will provide over 1,000 Fashion tips to attendees (Fashion Victims and those who make fashion errors) on WHAT TO WEAR WHEN & HOW with the use of real models of all figures (Pear, Apple, Hourglass, Rectangle, Round, Petite, Inverted Triangle, etc.
So, at the end of the day, the BFF Fashion Show offers a win-win situation for both the churches and its members, because the members will now dress fabulously and appropriately without fear of offending the Church or Community. Hence, their best foot would have been brought forward.
Format of the Show

Kick off a Good Dressing Culture in the church and larger society
Our youths can now dress happily, stylishly and impress not only themselves, but their work place, schools, churches, communities, and most importantly, God.
Aid youths to embrace and/or begin a good dress sense from their homes to everywhere they go, not only in the church. With this, charity will indeed be seen to begin at home.
Peace in the Church, as there may be no need to confront fashion victims, since they would have known what to wear when.
Concentration of the resources lavished on chasing fashion victims to more productive activities in the Church.
The youths will become the pacesetters in the larger society, as they will now become the ambassadors of dressing to bring their best foot forward!
Get promoted at their work places, pass interviews, get suitors, win back husbands/wives, please their families, communities and the church
Unmarried ladies/men will increase their chances of getting life-partners as men/women like to move with ladies/gentlemen who dress well.
