Last year, Precious Stones sold out their first annual plus-sized fashion show. This year, the society hopes to bring out even more people and raise hundreds of dollars. Precious Stones is an organization on campus whose idea is to assist women with their self-admiration and confidence concerns by empowering them to focus on the immense women they may not see themselves as, according to group member Alexis McCain.

The models for this fashion show are all size 10 and up, said McCain. This is a way for plus-sized women on campus to experience empowered and beautiful. McCain will be attending her first Precious Stones fashion show this year.

I have heard some stories about last year's show, and it just sounded exceptional, she said. I heard the power level was presently amazing, and I cannot wait to be a division of it this year and see how victorious we are with the offerings we receive this year.

The fashion show will not take place until February 19, but there is a lot planning that goes into putting on the show, said McCain. Tryouts for models took place Oct. 17 through Oct. 19, but concerned women still have time to get involved.
