2008 Pure Fashion Show!!!!!

So.....here are the pictures from the Fashion Show, just like I promised! All picture credits go to my dad. I was too busy looking at everything to even think about cameras. :-) You are all very fortunate, because he took pictures of every outfit on the runway. To any interested, all the outfits came from Dillard's. So.....here we go!

Shopping

Me looking at some bags

Dad caught me looking at this purse. It had about 7 different types of artificial animal fur all over it. The picture doesn't even do it justice. Not my style, I wouldn't even look at it. :-)

The Show

First up was a talk by co-host Julie Laipply on being beYOUtiful. She was extremely interesting.

There was a young lady named Heather Holtry from the Make-A-Wish Foundation. She has Lyme Disease, and her wish was to have original modest prom dresses that she had designed made and modeled at a Pure Fashion Show. She did such an awesome job.

Here are two more gowns. Heather is the girl on the right. My favorite dress is the one on the girl on the left.

In honor of Heather Holtry, who loves ballet, Pure Fashion had Mary Kate McCarthy, from the Atlanta Ballet, dance at the show.

After Music performances from Lindee Link, a 13 year old singer, (by the way, she did a great job) and Carried Away (loved them too) one of the models came out and spoke to the audience about her experience with Pure Fashion and how it helped her learn that modesty isn't about wearing just an old sack, but looking feminine and attractive as well. She was very interesting,

The next speakers were 2 models who had been friends for several years and did pure fashion together. They talked about how Pure Fashion really impacted their friendship and equipped them to truly challenge one another in their walk with Christ.
