Former Miss Montenegro Nataša Milosavljević Šćepanović and this year will organize the now traditional event "Fashion Night in Grabovac". The users of the Old People's Home in Risno will have the opportunity to walk again on the runway, which will be located outdoors in the yard of this institution, from 19 p.m. tonight.
The creations were specially designed for them by Montenegrin creators according to their wishes and measurements Marina Banović i Ana Kovačević, and all those models will be their gift to the ladies of the House.
"I can say this is a small jubilee and I am very proud of that fact, because we managed to hold on for almost two years during the coronavirus pandemic and make users happy. It is much easier to organize events like this now because we are already integrated, especially this year I have the endless support of everyone from the Home for the Elderly, led by the director Srđan Dragomanović with which I started this event five years ago. They understood my private life and obligations and made everything as easy as possible for me. I really owe thanks to all the people who have supported everything I do, and many of them have been with us from the very beginning, but I also hope for new support, that they themselves feel the need and desire to be a part of it," says Milosavljević Šćepanović in an interview with Vijesti.
She does not hide that she is glad that the users are satisfied with the models designed for them by Banović and Kovačević.
"It's an understatement to say that they are satisfied, because the creators, like in previous years, fully understood their role and did their best to fulfill all their wishes and requests. This year too, all creations will be a gift from the creators to the users. It's wonderful to work with such people. They received an invitation with a very short deadline to prepare everything and without any hesitation they accepted the challenge, which is not easy considering that I know how much energy and work is behind one final product, i.e. creations", notes the interlocutor of Vijesti.
Up until now, before the shows, Nataša would usually practice with the users so that they would be as safe as possible on the runway.
"This year the wonderful employees did it and sent me videos from the rehearsals. I'm sorry I couldn't be with them, but I know without any fear that everything will be perfect without a single mistake," she claims.
This event takes place once a year and old users look forward to it. However, the event "Fashion Night in Grabovac" is also well received by those who have just come to the Home.
"Probably guided by the experiences of their friends who have already tried it, they all have positive expectations," claims Nataša, and adds that regardless of their inexperience on the runway, there is no stage fright.
"Even if there is trepidation before going out, when they stand on the stage, all that remains is a smile on their faces and a long-lasting satisfaction".
One of the most beautiful Crnogorski believes that such events are very important, and appeals to as many people as possible to get involved not only in the organization of this one, but she would like to see more events intended for pensioners.
"It is already known and we keep repeating that age is just a number, but it really is. Life is a gift and should be treated gently with a special attitude. You can do anything you want and there are no boundaries, prejudices or shackles that should prevent you from doing something if it makes you happy. When you are young you don't see what your parents, grandparents are ready to do for you, and already when you grow up or even better you become a parent, five minutes is enough to bring back memories and if you are rewarded by having them by your side, try to give them repay each other through beautiful future shared moments", concludes Milosavljević Šćepanović.
