So tonight I attended the 'Fly To Fashion Show' @ Repton School, Dubai. The fashion show was in aid of a great charity called The Little Wings Foundation (check out their website here).
I was really excited to see this show as I had no clue what to expect! The fact that it was sponsored by Galleria Lafayette was a huge deal, and the clothes used were of exceptional standard. As much as I didn't like waiting 40 minutes for the show to start (we were told 6pm, it started at 6.40pm) I knew how much hassle there can be when it comes to organising something like this so I decided to just sit and be patient! The setting was gorgeous, it was amongst the sophisticated Repton grounds which were lovely, unlike any school I've ever seen!
Once the fashion show got started I was blown away by the level of professionalism held by the models, to say they were students, the way they stood and showed off the clothes was amazing! Unfortunately I forgot my camera and wasn't in the best of positions to take pictures, but there were a lot of high waisted tailored trousers and some lovely little dresses, not forgetting the insane use of high heels, praise to the models that had to walk in them, but hey that's fashion!
The male models were just as good and I must mention Ali Burton looking effortlessly cool sporting a Christian Lacroix suit!
All in all, 40 minutes late doesn't mean anything to me because I know that I had a great time, and so did the rest of the audience. It was professional, the hosts were great and the clothes were even better- and after all, it went to a great charity, so congratulations to whoever was involved and I hope to see many more events like this one around Dubai! Well done!!
