2:00pm - Chic, Cheap and FUNK-tional Costuming (75 minutes)
Desiré d'Amour shares 23+ years of costuming tips and tricks. Whether you have costumes made and just need a few complimentary items, or if you are building an entire outfit from scratch, you will learn ways to make your ideas come to life on a budget. She shares her costuming hacks and explains how to make the parts easily removable with real examples!
This class is generally designed for all body types and ability levels. Not every tidbit will work for everybody, but Desiré is good at thinking up solutions on the fly!

3:30pm - How to Apply Like a Queen (75 minutes)
Desiré d'Amour uses years of experience judging competitions, teaching, and mentoring to share best practices on contacting producers, applying to festivals and creating concept applications. With time carved out to answer specific questions as well as real-life examples of application fails and successes, this class is geared toward both competitors and those who just want to show their craft on anything from a local stage to a national competition.
