Around £4,000 was made at The LOROS Fashion Show this month which was put on by two LOROS Ambassadors Charlotte Thompson and Imogen Cox. What a show it was.

This was a fantastic example of how people coming together, all doing their bit, from buying a ticket to strutting their stuff on the catwalk can make an amazing night! The two girls sold an amazing 550 tickets, had 75 models and 20 dancers. Indy hairdressers were super slick and worked their way through everyone as well as Benefit make up that managed to make up 75 people within 2 hours. Christopher Scotney provided designer suites for the men to model which left the men look very dapper. Flo and Sang, which is a womenswear brand, stole the show as 20 dancers performing a Bollywood routine wore Flo and Sang signature leisurewear. Other clothes stores consisted of: Be Booted, Boutique 34, Rampant Sporting, Joules, Phase 8, Crew, Kibworth Emporium, Fat Face, Lisa B and Clafoutis.

The atmosphere was fabulous. Charlotte Thompson said “it was extremely rewarding to see such a successful night, it just shows what can be achieved, the fashion show will become an annual event as it's fun and it works!”

Alex Gamble, Corporate Fundraiser said “We are privileged that members of the community put on events in aid of LOROS as this helps reach our target of a minimum of £4 million every singe year. We are very grateful – well done”.
