Reading Passage
A Fashion Show
Last weekend, I attended a fashion show downtown. Each model walked the runway wearing unique and stylish outfits. One model was wearing a sparkling silver dress with high heels, while another wore a leather jacket paired with black pants. A male model caught everyone’s attention with his bright yellow suit and matching tie.
The accessories were just as impressive as the clothes. One model wore a wide-brimmed hat, and another carried a designer bag. The show ended with a group of models wearing colorful casual outfits, perfect for summer.
Fashion shows are a great way to see the latest trends. What kind of outfits would you like to see at a fashion show?
