Some of our group members took part in the Wessex Cancer Trust Sparkle Party Fashion Show which was attended and watched by around 180 ticketed guests – mainly family and friends of the models. Some of our group were very brace and modelled on the catwalk and others helped as volunteers, helping the models to get ready or checking in guests and serving them with a glass of prosecco.
There were stallholders selling items perfect for christmas presents including cakes and biscuits, gin, clothes and handbags, christmas wreaths, wooden lighted and tree decorations, disney character keyrings, light-bottles, jewellery and shortbread to name a few.
The clothes, shoes and accessories were provided by New Look in Eastleigh and the models had their hair and makeup done if they wanted to.
Sam Fraser from the local BBC news and weather was the compere for the fashion show and she interviewed each model as they each took a stroll down the catwalk to tremendous applause from the audience. They all looked absolutely amazing on the catwalk and were buzzing afterwards!
A truly memorable evening for everyone with lots of money being raised for a very worthy local charity who supports cancer patients, their families and loved ones through a variety of talking and touch therapies.
Have a look at their website if you would like to receive some support or to fundraise for them.
