Christmas
November was a very busy month for us as there were several events that we took part in. On the 5th November Halls Fine Art Auctioneers at Frankwell in Shrewsbury held an evening of Dazzle and Sparkle at the preview of their Christmas Jewellery and Fine Art Sale. The event was a fundraiser for Hope House Children's Hospice in Oswestry and we were delighted to be invited to take part. We showed gowns from our eveningwear collections together with some of the jewellery that was going to be auctioned. It was a complete sell-out and the evening began with champagne and canapes which was then followed by the Fashion Show. It was a great success and we were thrilled to know that £1,000 was raised for this most deserving of local charities.
On the 15th November, Hayley was guest speaker at a Ladies Lunch at the new Football Stadium which was also to fundraise for Hope House. Around 180 ladies came and enjoyed a delicious lunch and then enjoyed a wonderful hour of anecdotes and stories from Hayley's 23 years in the business. Showing some of the gowns from our archives and describing the process of making a bespoke wedding gown from start to finish gave the audience some idea of what her life and work involves. It was a most enjoyable and interesting afternoon and again raised some much needed funds for Hope House.
Last and by no means least, we showed more of our evening gowns at a Fashion Show held in conjunction with Fabricius Green, bespoke jewellers on the High Street in Shrewsbury to highlight their Winter Collection. This was held at the Albright Hussey Hotel to specially invited guests who had a lovely evening.
We are now having lots of enquiries for evening gowns for Christmas Balls and parties and also are taking bookings for weddings for 2008 and 2009. We will be closing for the Christmas season from 22nd December until 3rd January but if we can help you with anything then please do get in touch with us - we would be delighted to hear from you.
