8 Fashion Revue-Writing Your Narrative 1. Tell who you are. Say, Here is Jane Smith. instead of, I am Jane Smith. 2. Tell what you are modeling. Use the pattern envelope to help describe the garment(s). 3. Tell your age, club, years in the club, projects, interests, etc. If the narrative gets too long, don t use all of these. (Be sure to include your age and club name.) 4. If you can make the narrative clever without being cutesy you will be able to capture everyone s attention. 5. Keep the narrative short enough to be interesting, but long enough to cover the subject; 70 to 100 words is a good length. Remember, you have to be on stage the entire time the narrative is being read. Example narratives: Cindy Royce of Elm Tree 4-H Club has chosen this jumper for fun! It can be worn out to a movie or to school. The purchased eggshell knit top coordinates with the small flowers in the forest green jumper. She stitched a scrunchy to match the jumper and picked brown flats to complete the outfit. Cindy likes to sing, play her trombone and take care of her many animals. Cindy will be in the fifth grade at Hawthorne Elementary. Thank you, Cindy. Or Sue Cromwell means business in her plaid slim skirt with coordinating black blazer. The partially-lined blazer has front and back darts and a front pocket. Her skirt features front pleats, back darts and a back vent. Notice the careful job Sue has done matching the plaids. Sue can wear her skirt with the blazer, or she can simply wear a purchased white blouse with her skirt. Sue is a six year member of Hackberry 4-H Club. She enjoys reading, writing and socializing with her friends. Thank you, Sue.
