Life is a Runway

Life is a Runway is a song featured in the My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks animated encore short of the same name, which leads up to the third Equestria Girls film installment, Friendship Games. It is performed by Rarity. The short and song were uploaded to the Hasbro Studios Shorts YouTube channel on April 1, 2015 before being made private and separately reuploaded on April 3, 2015, both times alongside My Past is Not Today and Friendship Through the Ages. The short includes prominent appearances by human Lyra Heartstrings, Sweetie Drops, Roseluck, Cheerilee, Amethyst Star, and Derpy—notably, all but the last of whom comprise a wave of dolls —and also includes appearances by human Bulk Biceps and many unnamed characters and silhouettes of human Flash Sentry and some characters.

Daniel Ingram stated that these songs will likely be released with the next Equestria Girls album later this year.

Animated short synopsis
The short begins with Rarity in her workspace designing some fashions. In a fantasy sequence, Rarity struts down the street wearing her Rainbooms outfit. She gives magical makeovers to Derpy, Cheerilee, Lyra and Sweetie Drops. In the next fantasy sequence, they are all strutting down a runway joined by Rose and Amethyst Star. The short returns to reality as Rarity finishes sewing her fashions.
