Fundraising Fashion Show and Bargain Sale in aid of Remus Horse Sanctuary

Enjoy a unique afternoon of fashion at Stock Village Hall in Essex on Saturday 11 May in aid of Remus Horse Sanctuary. The fundraising fashion show will feature over 100 individual styles made up of timeless wardrobe essentials from leading high street fashion stores* such as M&S, Wallis, River Island, Mango, H&M, New Look, DKNY, Guess, White Stuff, Next, Dorothy Perkins and Oasis.

After the show guests will have opportunity to browse the rails and try on those items they’ve seen on the catwalk and purchase them at heavily discounted prices – generally at least 50% cheaper than the in-store price. A range of matching shoes and accessories will also be available to complement the clothes. And, in the event you change your mind, all items purchased can be returned within 14 days of the event for exchange or refund.

Catering for all shapes and sizes, the styles will be available in a range of sizes* from 6 – 22 ensuring there is something for everyone. During the show, the compere will describe what each model is wearing, the sizes available, and both the original and sale price.

Guests will have opportunity to win a £50 Colours Gift Voucher in the raffle, and refreshments will be available during the afternoon including tea, coffee, soft drinks, homemade cake and savoury snacks.

Doors open at 1pm for the Fashion Show to commence at 1.30pm. The fashion show itself will last approximately an hour and a half, followed by plenty of time to try on and purchase the items of choice.

Tickets cost just £6 per person, or three tickets can be purchased at the discounted price of £15. Tickets should be purchased in advance either by telephoning the Sanctuary on: 01277 356191 or via the website. Book your tickets online here for the Remus Colours Fashion Show and Pop-Up Shop.

Fashion Show Raises £950

Our first ever fashion show took place recently on Saturday April 7th at Stock Village Hall. You can see some photos alongside! With 100 ladies in attendance, the event raised a fabulous total of £950 for the Sanctuary.

Our Founder Sue Burton gave an introductory talk at the start and thanked everyone for their support and talked them through the latest arrivals at the Sanctuary.

The fashion show itself was 90 minutes long and everyone was then given the opportunity to purchase clothing on the night – much of the merchandise was being offered at up to 50% off! The show and clothing were provided by Colours Fashion Company who had come all the way from Manchester! It was all branded clothing including M&S, Wallis, New Look, Top Shop, River Island and many others. The evening also included refreshments and a raffle, which alone raised £200.

Almost everyone treated themselves to clothes and some ladies left with armfuls!

Once again the event was run mainly by volunteers and without their support this, and events like this, could not happen. We are so grateful to them.
