Catwalk show reaps $3000
THE weather Gods and The Op Shop Gods were on their best behaviour for the annual NicNak Shed fashion parade held at The Pullman Sea Temple Resort last month.
Port Douglas Community Network manager Emma Travers said the catwalk looked stunning with a sparkling blue back drop courtesy of the pool and magnificent architecture of the resort’s outdoor space and the perfect sunny day that did not rain on the parade
“All clothing and accessories on the runway were donated to the NicNak Shed throughout the year by the generous people and businesses of the Douglas Shire,” she said.
“More than 140 ladies and a couple of guys enjoyed an afternoon of fashion for all ages and cultures.
“The super models, who ranged in ages from six to in their 70s, were volunteers from within the local community and from a range of diverse backgrounds.
“Mahli, Tracey, Louise, Jeannie, Benita, Serena, Vashnee and Erin strutted their stuff in three different categories including day wear, resort wear and evening wear and the show was ended by the good bride and the bad bride. Unfortunately, the groom was a no show on the day.
“LJ did a great job with the hair as well as Kim and Jean helping the models prepare. Guests were treated to bubbles and hot and cold canapes on arrival before the show began.”
There was a lucky door prize and there were raffle prizes galore donated by local businesses.
Ms Travers said the day raised about $3000 for the Port Douglas Community Service Network.
