The Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas shares the same views as Dailey, that people with Down syndrome should be valued and included. Dailey believes that all children should be represented in advertisements and various children's editorials in fashion. The exhibit was originally created to show the word how it's done by first accepting the beauty of the children for just being children. La Belle Agency has joined Dailey's cause by agreeing to provide styling for her photo shoots and produce the fashion show segment now attached to this great exhibit.
On Saturday, March 3, 2012 Tonya Dailey and La Belle Agency will hold two model searches at one location. A Tiny Hiney Baby Boutique has cheerfully agreed to host the model search at their new location at 11661 Preston Road, Suite 210, Dallas, TX 75230. The model search will start at 11:00am to 2:00pm. Selected models for Tonya's Dailey's exhibit will be photographed on Sunday, March 4, 2012, while models selected by La Belle Agency will grace the runway on Sunday, April 1, 2012 at The New Faces of Fashion Exhibit & Fashion Show.
"The only professionals we are looking for are professional kids with great personalilities," states wardrobe stylist for La Belle Agency, Ivory Narvell. "We do not care about head shots or resumes. We just want happy and outgoing kids." The new flyer for the model search features Brooke Garbe from Arlington, Texas. Brooke has Down syndrome, an outstanding personality and was selected because she is fun to be with at a photo shoot. Brooke was styled by Narvell and then her family drove to Houston, Texas to shoot with Dailey. "It was a cold day to shoot outside but leave it to Miss Brooke to bring the sunshine," stated Dailey.
