FFFWEEK is in it's 6th years and I'm sad to announce this will be the last year. I was first introduced to the wonderful event though social media. I told myself next year I'll be there to rep for the Chicago plus scene. Blessing from God has allowed me to be in attedence. I've had the honor of meeting Ms. Devoe while she was in Chicago for the model search for this years FFFWeek. Her fun spirit showed when she photo bombed the picture I was taking of some of the would be models. I excited to see how the grand finale plays out.

The first event will be the FFFWeek 2014 90′s Theme Launch Party. It's a fundraiser for the Alex House Project and will be hosted by Bree Woodley, 2014 FACE of FFFWeek.
