Commentary Worksheet and Tips


Please reference the Fashion Revue Commentary Worksheet before writing your commentary!
Glenn County 4-H Fashion Revue Commentary Worksheet 2019
Sample Commentary
"It's the 4th of July for Mary Smith every time she wears this patriotic suit and she has a right to celebrate! The jaunty jacket sports shiny star buttons on the bright red wool. What a great idea! The scraps from that jacket turn into patch pockets on the military blue dress. Mary has had 6 years of 4-H sewing and foods projects, but always finds a new challenge. She made this suit during a thunderstorm, finishing just before the electricity went off. Can you imagine how great this outfit will be at Davis, where Mary will be a freshman this fall?"
Commentary Ideas
- Give information about the member and his/ her interests, such as where he or she is from, other 4-H projects, years in 4-H, future plans, summer job, etc.
- Give inspiration for, reason, or occasion for which outfit was planned. This could be the theme for the commentary.
- Keep sentences short and easy to read.
- Use questions and exclamations to give more variety to tone of voice.
- Create an appealing mental picture with descriptive words.
- Avoid the obvious or make it more interesting. (Rather than "it buttons up the front", say "buttons brighten the front", etc.)
- Tell the biggest challenge you encountered in sewing the outfit; what new sewing technique you learned.
- Add some humor, something amusing that happened while sewing. Example: In her rush to finish the dress, Katie put the zipper in upside down.
- If there are two parts to your outfit, such as a coat and a dress, mention the outer layer first and then the under garment)
- Read description of clothes in fashion magazines to get more fun ideas.
- As you complete your commentary, read it aloud. Does it flow smoothly? Is it easy to read and say?
- Please proof read before submitting.
Clothing Categories and Details for 2019
Youth may enter a maximum of two entries. Entries must be in separate categories. Garments must be made in this current 4-H year, under direction of a 4-H leader. Outfits are evaluated both on stage and up close using the rubrics and evaluation forms provided by the State Fashion Revue Committee. Primary members are not evaluated (they will receive comments only and all will be given the same award).
In addition, choose from the following elements that are in your box. Junior members must include at least one in their sewn garment(s). Intermediate members must include at least two. Senior members must include at least three. The garment(s) must be sewn by the member as part of the Clothing & Textiles/Sewing project.
In the box:
- Buttons- must use at least 3 red, white or blue or combination. For Juniors they may be decorative. For Intermediates and Seniors, they must be functional.
- Zipper- red, white or blue; functional not just decorative.
- Trim – red, white or blue or a combination of colors – for example: rickrack, lace, piping, braid, bias tape binding, etc.

- Collar, ruffle, or set-in sleeve
- Handmade accessory – red, white, or blue, or combination of these colors
Option 1. Start with a fashion design drawing. Submit a picture of it.
Option 2. Start with an idea of what you want to make. Submit the written description.
Find a commercial pattern or patterns, or draw your own pattern to create a wearable garment. If you use one or more commercial patterns, submit the pattern number. Tell which part you used (skirt, sleeve, pant leg, etc.). Tell how you modified the pattern to fit you or to create the look you wanted. If you draw your own pattern, tell how you made your pattern and how you figured out the instructions for creating your garment(s).
