Virginia State University will host a Spring Fling “Royals” Fashion Show, a royalty-themed event, from 6 to 9 p.m. March 15 at Daniel Gymnasium on campus.

Six local designers and 33 student models will show off clothing inspired by the prestige and glamour of kings and queens, said program coordinator Jairamie King. Trendy styles, ranging from graphic T-shirts and hoodies to floor- length gowns, will be showcased.

The show’s focus on urban apparel and couture reflect the style diversity in the fashion industry, Mr. King said.

“Between urban and couture, we all feel like kings and queens in the apparel we decide to wear,” he said.

The free event is open to the public. It also kicks off VSU’s 2015 Spring Fling Week, which runs until March 21 and will include a pageant, card tournament, pool party and LGBT ball among other events.
