Miss Northern Marianas Earth Heavenly Pangelinan plans to host an eco-friendly fashion show on Feb. 8, 2025.
MISS Northern Marianas Earth Heavenly Pangelinan is looking for sponsors, models, designers, and volunteers who can help her bring together an eco-fashion show on Feb. 8, 2025.
In a media statement, Pangelinan expressed interest in bringing recycling projects to Tinian and Rota and is using an eco-fashion show as a fundraiser to support that goal.
She said the fashion event will showcase “designers, companies, & people who prioritize sustainability, ethical production, and environmentally friendly materials.”
Pangelinan said she wants to highlight “eco-conscious designers” and “fashion that cares.”
“Models will compete and walk the runway wearing creations from some of the most sustainable clothing designers, companies, and pop-up shops throughout our islands, each bringing their unique take on eco-friendly fashion,” she said. “From organic cotton to recycled fabrics and thrifted pieces, this show is a celebration of fashion that gives back to the planet by promoting reusing and causing less waste.”
Prizes will be awarded to the Best in Thrift, Diversity and Inclusion, Most Fashionable, Natural Jeweler, Best Native Wear, Repair and Repurpose, and Eco-Energy.
Food and drink vendors, as well as entertainment and photo booths, will be on site.
“Whether you’re an aspiring designer, a passionate eco-fashion advocate, or simply a lover of beautiful clothing with a purpose, this is your opportunity to be part of something truly special,” Pangelinan said.
Pangelinan said a venue will be announced at a later date. Contact (670) 788-2700 or missearth.northernmarianas@gmail.com by Jan. 31 to participate.
