The Aggie Modeling Machines: Couture Productions and Verge Modeling Troupe (Part 1)

North Carolina A&T is host to two of North Carolina's most infamous modeling organizations, Couture Productions and Verge Modeling Troupe. They are known throughout NC for the many creative and flamboyant spectacles they put on; especially for their university's homecoming fashion show and various competitions. Both groups were started circa the early 2000's. Couture is the oldest (as I'm told), followed by Verge, which was started by disgruntled former Couture members who reportedly wanted more out of performance modeling.

Side, Pivot Twist, Dior: Naomi Campbell Style!

People who don't understand the whole performance runway art form like to criticize it as being "not real modeling," and "ghetto." I decided to put up some vintage Naomi Campbell clips showing her doing a couple of footwork elements and runway acknowledgements (circa 90's) to prove them wrong. She was paid for those pumps and twirls! Plus, it's Naomi, you can't go wrong there!
