The night still resonates with the vibrant energy of “Raíces Elevadas” (Elevated Roots), an event that transcended the definition of a simple Fashion Show to become a moving celebration of culture, heritage, and feminine power. Born from a deep “illusion” in the heart of its organizer, this show materialized thanks to a synergy of talents, proving that when passion leads the way, dreams soar.
💃 A Runway of Pride and Culture
The soul of the event was, undoubtedly, the models, who not only walked with “strength, elegance, and pride,” but transformed the runway into a narrative canvas. Every step was a tribute to our roots, conveying “history, culture, and feminine power” with unmatched grace.
🎨 The Art of the Details
Behind the scenes, a team of professionals converted the vision into a visual and sensory masterpiece. Fashion producer, Pierre Dulanto, was the architect who “transformed ideas into magic,” taking care of every detail with excellence. The elegance and style were provided by the decorator, Gabriela Gigi Herrera, who created an “unforgettable setting.”
- Stellar Makeup: The talent of Rafa Castillo and his team, with the support of Giovanna Siles, ensured that they “highlighted the beauty of each person with perfection and creativity.”
- Silent Harmony: The backstage team, composed of Jimena Andrea Barron, Darcy Caba, Maribel Castillo Coronado, Nayra Suyo Rivera, and Ana Martinez, guaranteed that everything “flowed with harmony” through a “silent yet fundamental” dedication.
🎶 Rhythm, Soul, and Emotion
The experience was propelled by cultural performances that injected “rhythm, passion, and soul.” The Diablada Boliviana – Fundación Socio Cultural Boliviana Nelly Zapata infused the audience with the richness of folklore, honoring the heritage that gives the event its name. Likewise, Claudia Vargas de Tapia, Director of Dance for Fun, managed to “bring life to every movement and convey unique emotions.”
The hosts, Jenny M. Urdininea, Gustavo Valdivia, and Denice Céspedes, kept the energy high, radiating “emotion, energy, and professionalism at every moment.”
📸 Sponsors and Unforgettable Flavor
An event of this magnitude would not be possible without the support of essential pillars. We thank the sponsors, including Carola Salinas, Caro Campbell, Yahaira Córdova, Jimena Martinez Alconini, and, of course, Revista Latinos desde EEUU, for their commitment to art, fashion, and culture.
Finally, the impeccable service of Abacho’s Catering (Alvaro Claros Santa Cruz and Charines Tapia) added a touch of “flavor and warmth,” closing the night on a note of perfection. The magic of the evening was immortalized by photographers Alvaro Sandi and Luis Peralta, who “captured the essence, the magic, and every moment.”
“Raíces Elevadas” has left an indelible mark. It is a testament that fashion can be a powerful vehicle for celebrating identity, and that the passion of a team, from the designer to the backstage, can create a truly “unforgettable” night. The audience, by vibrating with every detail, took away more than a memory: they took away a celebration of shared culture.
