We’re tigers on the catwalk

Fashion shows are a great way in which we showcase Toni’s bespoke fashion designs to a wider audience and normally raise money for charity at the same time.

When you see models for the larger brands on the catwalk, they often show clothing which isn’t intended to be purchased or worn by consumers. Designers choose fairly radical examples of their ideas to show the breadth of their creativity and then the garments are toned down so they are wearable and desirable for everyday customers.

It’s a bit like automotive brands displaying fantastic concept cars at motor shows. There’s never an intention to produce these models but they’re indicating a direction their designers might take over the coming years, and what they’re capable of making.

We’ve held some very well-attended fashion shows over the last year, culminating in the recent Most Spectacular Fashion Show, in Worthing. Even the Mayor of Worthing was in the front row! You can see some of our range of designer dresses, clothing, jewellery and accessories in this video: http://vimeo.com/96154823

Get Waisted will be featured at two more forthcoming events:

We’re helping to organise a charity event in wake of floods in the Balkans https://www.facebook.com/pages/Charity-Event-for-the-floods-in-Balkans/275352385978752

This event will feature marvellous vintage designer dresses in a terrific setting. Put the date in your diary: June 28 from 3.30–7.30pm.

And finally, Toni’s planning a Get Waisted fashion show later in the year. Watch this space for more details.
