#ApocalypseSlam - Model Ticket

The year is 2120.  The United States is a ghostland of crumbling cities & rusting automobiles. An apocolyptic plague broke out on July 13th, 2020 & ravished the US, destroying 95% of the population. Quarentineed off by Mexcio & Canada with chain linked fences & really huge walls, communication & transportation collapsed during year two. Small bands of Oregonian survivors now travel in wild packs via razor scooters, skateboards, roller skates & shopping carts. To honor the anniversay of the end of civilization as we once knew it, a celebration of fashion & photography has been planned at an auto graveyard in the neutral territory of Eugene, OR. Let your freak flag fly, barter for ripped Levis, goggles, shampoo, feathers & facepaint. First 15 models AND first 15 photographers to register will receive a free @smoke.effect colored smoke grenade

Wardrobe on location by Tia Reagan Creative 

Smoke grendades by @smoke.effect
