Cecil Russell’s POSE Winter Party Official Contest Rules!

The Pose Winter Runway Competition was inspired by a respect and admiration for the hit television program of similar name, but in fact is in no way a reproduction of a ball as presented on the show and is an“only-in-San-Francisco” inclusive runway competition welcoming to all.    All categories and rules were created by the producers of this event with hope to embrace the spirit of diversity and inclusiveness while also celebrating the unique creativity that is special to the San Francisco LGBT nightlife community.

Below are the aspects by which everyone walking in the runway show will be scored by the judges.  If you haven’t already pre-arranged to walk and you wish to do so in one of these categories, please contact cecil@34.214.175.216 immediately!
