On a cool 
evening in West Midtown Atlanta, VSGal trotted on over to 
 Studio 1*five*0 
for UrbanCouture Remixed a preview of the upcoming May fashion 
show.  Unlike other fashion shows, this is one of a kind.  "UrbanCouture" is the 
only fashion course offered at a high school in the entire nation.  Each year 
E. Vincent Martinez, fashion maven and teacher at Grady High School, proudly 
presents the year's senior fashion students collections.  Modeled by the 
students themselves, each student designs between 6 and 9 pieces to be presented 
in the May show. 
 The preview show featured one outfit from each of the designer's collections.  
The "catwalk" was painted by Scenario and is a representation of an 
aerial view of the Old Fourth Ward area of Atlanta.  Leslie Fram (previously 
Atlanta's 99x morning show radio personality) was the MC for the evening's 
events.
 
 VSGal caught up with Vincent after the show for this exclusive interview...
