Media Alert: Who's In or Out at the Festival of Arts?

LAGUNA BEACH, CA--(Marketwire - July 26, 2010) -

One of the hottest events last summer was the Festival Runway Fashion Show (sponsored in part by Arbonne) and it's back this summer by popular demand on Saturday, July 31st from 1 - 4pm. The event, a take off of TV's hit show Project Runway, will feature talented Festival artists' eco-friendly fashion designs, a DJ spinning tunes as the models strut down the runway and three top judges. Come see a fashion show where creativity and ecology collide.

Festival artists as a group or as individuals have been given the challenge of creating an outfit out of at least 80% recycled materials. They will face a panel of celebrity judges whose sense of fashion and style rivals that of Heidi Klum and Michael Kors! Bringing a bit of LA to Laguna are celebrity judges actress Joely Fisher and artist Andre Miripolsky. Laguna's voting voice will be heard through arts commissioner, fashion executive and artist Suzi Chavel
