An inspiring press conference was held at Cinnamon Grand Colombo to officially unveil “Walk to Equality,” a groundbreaking fashion show spearheaded by The Walk Model Academy in partnership with Cinnamon Grand. Centred around the empowering theme “Life Without Labels,” the show is a powerful declaration of inclusivity, diversity, and personal empowerment through fashion.
Scheduled for May 19, the Walk to Equality fashion show aims to challenge the status quo of conventional beauty standards. The event will feature a dynamic group of models from all walks of life, taking centre stage to showcase their confidence, individuality, and unique stories. Each model is a testament to resilience and authenticity, offering the audience a fresh and inclusive vision of what fashion can represent.
The press conference highlighted the heart and soul of this initiative. Rather than being just a stylish event, Walk to Equality was framed as a social movement, one that uses the universally resonant platform of fashion to promote understanding, empathy, and acceptance. The Walk Model Academy emphasized that the event is as much about the journey as it is about the runway. Through months of preparation, training sessions, fittings, and personal development, the models have been nurtured in an environment of empowerment and support.
This journey has not been a solo endeavour. The show’s impact is amplified by the collaboration of a passionate team, creative professionals, and partners who believe in a future where fashion is for everyone. The Walk to Equality project is a model of community engagement, demonstrating what is possible when people unite for a cause that celebrates humanity in its most inclusive form. Proceeds from the fashion show will support Meals on Wheels, a charitable initiative that provides meals to children in rural communities. By purchasing a ticket or supporting the event in other ways, attendees are not only celebrating inclusive fashion but also contributing to meaningful change.
The organizing team invites the public to join in supporting this transformative initiative. Whether by attending, donating, or simply spreading the message, everyone has a role to play in building a world that values each individual for who they are. Updates, ticketing details, and ways to get involved can be found on the official social media channels of The Walk Model Academy.
Walk to Equality is more than just a show, it’s a bold statement about the kind of world we want to live in: one where labels fall away and every individual is seen, valued, and celebrated.
