Top names from the fashion and creative industries will combine their talents to bring a stunning evening of entertainment in aid of charity to Swansea on Saturday March 10.
The sparkling event, which is hosted at The City Temple, Dyfatty Street, at 7pm, will see the auditorium transformed into a catwalk as models showcase the latest collections from Next, Warehouse, Toms and high end independent boutiques Samantha K, Rhapsody, Nanettes plus others.
Event organiser Emma Anyadike says, For the price of a 5 ticket you will be treated to a show of sumptuous clothes, speak directly to fashion advisors who will be able to give you tips on dressing your best, order the clothes you have seen as well as accessories such as jewellery, scarves, bags and ethically sourced gifts.
Swansea radio presenter Kev Johns, above, will host the event which will include a live music set from the recording artist Mal Pope, below.

All money from the ticket sales will go to support the work of The Freedom Project which works to set vulnerable women and children free from sexual exploitation in India, Cambodia and Swaziland.
The City Temple Swansea is part of the Elim Church Network and its head of overseas work Chris Jones will be at the event to explain how your money will be spent to bring freedom to women and children. Wales-born Chris has travelled throughout the world spearheading projects to help poor and vulnerable people, but even he was shocked during a recent trip to India to discover the sheer extent of enforced prostitution in that country.
But according to Chris there are wonderful people rescuing the enslaved and he was able to visit a centre set up by local Indian Christians on his last trip. He says, The girls were aged from 5 to 16 and all of them had suffered at the hands of neighbours and families. They had gone through real mental turmoil, but now they have a real hope and a future thanks to this work supported by Freedom Project. I can still see their smiling faces before me.
Emma Anyadike adds, Come to the event on Saturday 10th March at 7pm and have a wonderful time in the knowledge that you will be making a real difference to vulnerable women and children, who although thousands of miles away, are every bit as precious as our own.
