It's Oscar season once again and his spotlight is getting ready to shine forth and highlight the talent and beauty of his contenders. Here at Wednesday's Child, we like to let our light shine forth every week on unique and deserving youth contending for a permanent role within an adoptive family. Stepping into this week's Wednesday's Child spotlight and into Doris Bergman's pre-Oscar Style and Gifting Lounge is Autumn (1995).
Autumn, who also goes by "Rain", is an outgoing teen who just seems to have a natural poise in front of cameras. At the Style and Gifting Lounge, Autumn visited with the high-end jewelry, handbag and fashion designers on hand as she worked to pull together her look for our own red carpet. Autumn is a very thoughtful, bright and articulate young lady who hopes to be in the arts someday and spending some time with Wednesday's Child partner and fashion designer Kelly Nishimoto fanned Autumn's interest in the fashion industry.
With so many possibilities and some time to figure it out, Autumn will no doubt add flair to whatever she ultimately chooses to do as a career. And while Autumn had many style consultants helping her complete her look for her Wednesday's Child debut, in the big picture it is "life consultants" in the form of a forever family that Autumn seeks. Autumn has much to offer to the role of daughter/family member, including creative input on the yet unscripted adventures of her and her forever family, so have "your people" call "our people" and let's see what can be worked out!
