The Fashion of Film competition was created by Tommy Nichols, Founder of the Charlotte Black Film Festival. The goal is to incorporate all elements of film into our annual event. This year theme for the 9th annual Charlotte Black Film Festival is "Birthing the Gifts" where we are launching creatives into their destiny.

Our Fashion of Film competition will allow up to 100 models applications to be selected and paired with 12 creative designers. This year, designers will create a stylish and innovative garment that reflects their personal interpretation of a fashion flare film. All ages, shapes, and sizes are welcomed to apply. Experience helpful, but not a requirement. Models are asked to provide a recent headshot and a full-length photo for consideration. Best Runway Model and Best Modeling troupe will be announced at the Red Carpet Vision Awards on Saturday, April 13, 2019, at 8 pm. Designer Casting Call February 2, 2019. Some Models who have participated in the Fashion of Film Showcase have been invited to other fashion shows, networked with filmmakers for Films projects and appeared on TV. ( see below)
