St Aidan’s Fashion Show 2017: Meet the Models

This years’ St Aidan’s Charity Fashion Show will be held in aid of Children North East, a charity working with disadvantaged children, young people and families in the local area. Their aim is to provide crucial services such as mental health counselling and support for children affected by domestic violence.

Fashion show chair Megan Clube told The Tab, “Working with the theme of Arcadia, we are hoping to morph from an idyllic, pastoral setting at the beginning of the show to a psychedelic wonderland. We hope that our audience will embrace this transition from the calm to the chaos, appreciating our eclectic mix of clothing and styling.”

In terms of the fashion, Fashion Coordinators Ilona Phillips and Flora Stafford tell us “We are very excited to be using Belmont Designs for our evening gown walk, especially as designer Claire Lichfield was a past student at Aidan’s. We are also looking forward to displaying some sparkly catsuits from online brand Babydol, as well as having all our favourite celebs on the catwalk thanks to another sponsor Homage Tees”.
