Your backstage experience

From the first brushstroke

This is an opportunity to collaborate with talented beauty professionals, experience the energy of a live runway production, and contribute your creativity to one of Central Florida's fashion celebrations.

From the first brushstroke to the final finishing touch, our beauty team plays an essential role in bringing the runway to life. If you have a passion for fashion, creativity, and collaboration, we'd love to learn more about you.

Selected volunteers will enjoy

  • The opportunity to work alongside other professional hair stylists and makeup artists.
  • Experience working backstage at a live fashion production.
  • Lunch, snacks, refreshments, and dinner provided throughout the day.
  • Access to select beauty products generously donated by participating beauty brand partners, subject to availability.
  • An invitation to the official Winter Park Fashion Week after-party.

Come prepared
to create.

All participating hair stylists and makeup artists are responsible for bringing their own professional tools, brushes, equipment, and essential supplies needed to perform their services.

Winter Park Fashion Week is working with beauty brands to provide donated products and additional backstage resources for our artists. These products are intended to complement, not replace, each artist's professional kit.

Artists should arrive prepared to perform their assigned services independently and follow appropriate sanitation and hygiene practices.

Specific backstage instructions and assignments will be provided to selected volunteers before the event.
