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.
