Vote for the Spring 2010 New York Fashion Week Internship Finalists
New York Fashion week is just around the corner and our search for four fantastic interns continues.
We carefully read through all the entries we received on our blog and narrowed our choices down to seven fabulous fashionistas, who have submitted videos of themselves answering these questions:
1. If Fashion Week were an island and you could take only three things with you, what would they be and why?
2. If you were a pair of shoes, which pair of shoes would you be and why?
3. If you were to attend a premiere Fashion Week party, what would you wear and why?
Now it’s up to you to vote for your favorite intern candidate. Voting starts Jan. 22, 2010 (now!), and ends 11:59 p.m., Jan 28, 2010. Please remember that only the votes on our poll below are counted. Ratings and comments on YouTube do not count. Official interns will be announced on or around Feb. 1, 2010. Check out the videos below and vote for your favorite! The four candidates with the most votes will move on to a week of water ambassadorship and haute couture. Good luck to everyone!
Here are the videos, in alphabetical order, by last name:
Name: Emily Bender
Name: Patrice Chatman
Name: Dawn Conrade
Name: Lauren Crumpecker
Name: Laura Harap
Name: Kimberly Preacely
Name: Aislinn Zolna

Congrats Babe. Not surprised at all...you're the hardest worker I know and I'm proud of you. Have fun.

Aislinn is the best for sure. Ive known her since 5th grade and has been my best friend for years and will always be. She would always have my back no matter what and i know i can always always depend on her. I know how much she wants this internship and how much she deserves it. She is extremely hard working and would def. take the most of this opportunity. good luck ash <3

Aaron Palacio
Dawn is pretty much the s***!!!!!!
Justin Buser
I agree, my money is definitely on Dawn :)
Andy
Some of these vote totals seem to be on steroids as they jump up huge amounts in seemingly no time and against trends... not accusing, just saying...
Brielle
Although I wish all the contestants luck, one certainly is the most fashionable, marketable, and original. LAUREN CRUMPECKER ALL THE WAY!!!!
Ryan McKnight
After watching all the videos, hands down, Dawn Conrade is the most talented and original finalist. She deserves to win!
Sean
Vote for Lauren
Brendan obryhim
I would have Dawn Conrade's baby. C-section, of course.
Karen
I think Laura is great :) she seems dilligent, young, attentive, and someone great for this position
Brittney
From what I can tell, everyone who has posted knows the people they are voting for. As an outside person having never met any of these girls, I think the one who actally took time and put effort and thought into her video is # 4 down Lauren Crumpecker.
All of the girls thought about their answers, but the quality and thought put into her video is refreshing. I hope that people vote fairly.
Ed
Lauren has good presence, well organized and has thought out her presentation. She's a winner as far as I am concerned.
Chris
Lauren has great charisma, and thought out answers. She seems a very valuable winner!!
Boston
VOTE FOR DAWN! Although i hope the best for all the other contestants. She has been the best girlfriend sister ever to me! she is such great person and her video is creative other than the other girls being interviewed by a computer.
warmly,
Boston :)
Ashley EG
Emily Bender is by far the most stylish of the group! I think she will be the best candidate in representing FIJI at NY Fashion Week. Go EMILY!
Erika
Lauren Crumpecker! <3
Michelle
Lauren Crumpecker is definitely the girl for the job! She is gorgeous and answered the questions flawlessly. Vote for Lauren Crumpecker !!
Aubrey Sair
Dawn Conrade is HANDS DOWN the best contestant across the board! She has personality, humor, and is a total stunner! I say everyone votes for this chick because she is going to lay it down for Fiji Water Fashion Week NYC 2010!!!!!!!!!!!
Omar
Vote for Lauren Crumpecker!
Lehi
Vote for lauren crumpecker! She is the person for the job. You would not regret hiring her.
Mary
Vote for that great gal EMILY BENDER! - She'll be a wonderful
intern with her fashion sense and she is able to pull it off! She's
got pizzaz and perky answers.
Johnathan Tchaikovsky
I wish success for the all the artists/contestants. However, of all the people I've met in my life Dawn Conrad embodies a phrase I often avoid. She "deserves" our support as much as possible. She has given her life to the ones she loves and perhaps it's time she creates her own path. Forgive the cheesiness but sometimes ya just gotta.
Warmly,
Johnny
Alexa
YAY LAUREN! hers is the best, hands down.
Adele
Unique.......Cool .........Confident........That's Lauren Crumpecker. A perfect rep for Fiji at New York Fashion Week. She would definitely do them proud!

Emily is the mistress of popular culture. She would be a tremendous intern and asset to FIGI"s program.
Kristin
Wow! I just watched all of these videos and Laura Harap seems to be the only one who deserves this internship! She seems to have a great persona about her and seems very real and motivated. Definitely vote for her!

Lauren Crumpecker has what it takes - to be smart, yet cool, funny, expressive, and a good person all at the same time. She has my vote!
Annie
Lauren Crumpecker is an inspiration to us all; the way she is so passionate about what she wants to do, you can tell she is soooo worth first place. Obviously the votes represent how Lauren is fully capable of getting the word out to a mass audience, just like she could do for Fiji water. Get it girl. You are the BEST!!!!

VOTE FOR LAUREN CRUMPECKER!
You can definitely tell from her video that she lives for fashion! And like her high-tops, she's unique : ) very cute!
the other contestants had great videos as well, but Lauren's seemed to shine the most. She's classy and original!
Claire Spinetti
Laura Harap is the sweetest person in the world. I have always looked up to her. She is by far the best!
elizabeth hennessy
Dawn Conrade , hands down the BEST! Beautiful girl, great personality, really shows!
Spencer Scott
I have also known Patrice since she was young. She is an amazing person to work with, and she has an awesome personality to boot. Even if she doesn't win, to work at Fashion Week has been a dream of hers since ever, and she will end up working there anyway. You might as well just cut out the middle man.
Love ya Pat-Rice!!!! Good luck.
Veronica Viada
I've known Patrice since she's been a very young girl. She is always great at anything she does.
Good Luck Patrice!
Maxx Fairbanks
Dawn Conrade is beautiful, has enormous charisma, cannot take my eyes off her, and would be an enormous asset in this campaign for Fiji. . . . if Hollywood doesn't get her first!
If you don't hire her, our company will.
