Fabulous! For CLIC Sargent sold out weeks before the event leaving many fashionistas missing out on what was a truly Fabulous! evening.
Here's your chance to catch up on what went on at The Tannery, Moira that night with Fabulous's own Julie Leitch's review of the proceedings.
Well, after the Fabulous! guests (all impeccably turned out) finished their Fabulous! Fizzy reception they were served their truly Fabulous! Food which was expertly prepared by none other than Derek Patterson and his very capable team.
Dr Wendy Austin and Glen Pavis ensured the Fabulous! guests knew why they were there, to enjoy a Fabulous! decadent night in aid of a very worthy cause CLIC Sargent.
Then the Fabulous! Fashion collection showed up right on cue to the perfect accompanying music mixed by Jay Kay. The Fabulous! team of models didn't have any arguments who was wearing what as the choices were to die for! Strolling around they did a superb job of giving the viewer an up close and personal look at their outfits. Guests loved the relaxed environment allowing them to discuss the outfits there and then whilst still nibbling the tapas and sipping the wine.
Guests were treated to a Fabulous! selection from Candy Plum, Wish Bridal, Eden Park and Pulse Clothing. The whispers on the night, getting louder by the second run (given the wine consumed along with desert between) were all echoing the same thing "I want that, and that and that.....ohhh and that!" I have to admit the choices on show left the viewer in a terrible situation of how to choose what outfit to commit to and not buy everything!
Candy Plum's Zara Beggs was on hand to reserve Fabulous! favourites for future purchases and talk through the hidden gems that complimented the collection on show.
Wish Bridal's display of "Wow" inducing dresses (pictured left) even tempted a few "Fiancées" to reconsider their current chosen dress.
Whilst the Fabulous! Guests were treated to fashion for themselves, the addition of Eden Park and Pulse Menswear gave them the opportunity to mentally redress the man in their life. I have to admit, the show induced a slight spending spree on behalf of my husband as I couldn't resist the gorgeous Eden Park Navy and Pink trimmed Boating Jacket shown very professionally by Nicholas Gray (Mens Health Cover an achievable ambition!) on the night.
Pulse Clothing brought forth an "of the minute" look for the men showcasing their exclusive brand Luke. The choices were all impeccable and left every woman in the room with a vision of their man reworked by Pulse!
Backstage was certainly one of the best places to be with enthusiastic helpers and models getting a preview of all the gorgeous clothes. One of the most coveted items of the night had to be Candy Plum's Kate Fearnley dress as modelled on the night by the striking Nicole Charda Toan.
A night like this wouldn't be anywhere close to Fabulous! unless it reached ALL of its goals so lets think... Fabulous! venue, guests, hosts, models and music (breathe!) Fabulous! Fashion, food, drink, prizes and atmosphere tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, and Fabulous! fundraising??........having raised over £6000 most definitely the biggest tick.
So next time if you fancy experiencing the Fabulousness of Fabulous! For....get your tickets early because it's sure to sell out fast!
