Photography by "Yen" Alexis Yuen

Name: Holly Wilson

Year: 2012

Fun fact: James Franco came to my high school English class

First time modeling? No, I did LUX last year!

Why did you join Lux? Because it's SO MUCH FUN and a great cause.  I get to spend my weekends talking to beautiful people and wearing beautiful clothes.

What do you know about Tufts China Care Club? China Care helps Chinese orphans in so many ways.  They work firsthand with orphans in the area through their Dumplings program, go to China to visit children there, and fundraise to provide surgeries and help for orphans.

Why should people come to Lux this year? Not only is it a chance to help a Chinese orphan by donating money for him/her to receive a surgery that will give him/her a better chance of being adopted, but it's also an opportunity to partake in the most fashionable event that will ever happen to Tufts.  And there are prizes.  It's really a win-win-win situation.

Others things you would like to add: I guess, basically, we live for the fame, fame, baby, the fame, fame

Tickets are selling fast. You don't want to miss the hottest Tufts event this year.

Featured Model - Kevin Campbell

Name: Kevin Campbell
Year:  Freshman, '14
Fun fact: I discovered I could dance fairly well for the first time at a night club in Italy in the 11th grade.
First time modeling?  This is the first time I will be functioning primarily as a model-- I've been in another show before in sort of a Miss-America-for-guys-contestant-type role.
Why did you join Lux? I was informed by my older sister, a junior at Tufts, that Lux was an awesome, extremely rewarding experience, and therefore I should audition-- so far her appraisal has been very accurate.  I also was persuaded to audition by a member of Tufts China Care Club who lives in my residence hall.
What do you know about Tufts China Care Club? I am aware that TCC is an organization dedicated to benefiting the lives of sick and handicapped orphans in China, and am also aware that TCC puts on events such as Lux to raise money for life-saving surgeries.
Why should people come to Lux this year? High fashion, beautiful people, entertainment, and a good cause to tie it all together-- you couldn't ask for more.
Others things you would like to add: In addition to modeling for Lux, I am an amateur break-dancer, avid tennis player and fan, and a current member to the Tufts Men's Crew team.  I also am on the E-board for Tufts Asian American Alliance, and will serve as a Peer Leader to incoming freshmen next year.  All of this, of course, I do on top of my academic pursuits; I plan on majoring in Biochemistry on a track towards dental school in the future.

Featured Model - Avantha Arachchi

Photography by "Yen" Alexis Yuen

Name: Avantha Arachchi
Year: 2013
Fun fact: I might be the only heel-wearing Sri Lankan and Jewish boy with an NRA membership that you'll ever meet. 
First time modeling? Nope. Since my mother is a designer and she saw that I had an interest in fashion, she got me to start modeling young. But this is the first time I've been able to model for something that is so worth it in the grand scheme.
Why did you join Lux? It is an amazing opportunity for me to use my love of fashion for something bigger than just feeling good about the way I look. Fashion, to me, has always been about opportunities: to feel stronger, to have a little fun, and to express yourself. Lux takes that even further by giving opportunities to children in China. 
What do you know about Tufts China Care Club? They are a truly amazing group that allows children in China to live a different, better life through funding pediatric surgeries. 
Why should people come to Lux this year? Why wouldn't you? Hot models? Amazing clothes? And everything goes to an absolutely spectacular cause? It's going to be unforgettable. And you'll never forgive yourself for missing it. ;) 
Others things you would like to add: Lux is going to be one amazing night. You're not going to want to miss it. Do yourself a favor. Don't.

Tickets Go on Sale this Tuesday April 5. Make sure to get yours and we'll see you on the 14th!

Featured Model - Hyomi Carty

 

Photography by "Yen" Alexis Yuen

Name: Hyomi Carty
Year: 2012
Fun fact: I've been practicing Tae Kwon Do, a Korean martial art, since I was 16.
First time modeling? Though I've had no official modeling experience, this is my third year in a row participating in the Tufts Chinacare fashion show. 
Why did you join Lux? The prospect of being able to bring in funds for as honorable a cause as Tufts Chinac are's mission to finance Chinese orphans' surgeries is a very appealing one. I was proud to be part of the effort last year that raised over $4000 for an orphan's heart surgery, and wish to contribute once again to this fundraiser. In addition to this motivation, Lux has been a great way to bring the community together for a night of fashion and entertainment, meet awesome people, and forge lasting friendships.
What do you know about Tufts China Care Club? The Tufts China Care Club has been working tirelessly, since its inception, to raise funds for disenfranchised Chinese orphans through a variety of different projects and efforts, especially for those who are sick or in desperate need of surgeries. So far, TCC has been able to sponsor some form of medical treatment for four Chinese orphans. 
Why should people come to Lux this year? When you buy a ticket to the show, you'll be contributing to an incredible cause while simultaneously enjoying an energizing, aesthetic, and sartorial presentation. Let's just say our models are "easy on the eyes." 
Others things you would like to add: COME SUPPORT YOUR FAVORITE MODEL!!! WE NEED OUR FRIENDS IN THE AUDIENCE TO CAST VOTES FOR THE CHANCE TO BE CROWNED "TOP MODEL." *shameless plug: Vote for me!!
