Grosse Pointe South Shows Off Fashion

Guests were given the red carpet treatment Tuesday at Grosse Pointe South where hundreds of students performed, modeled and organized the annual Fashion Show put on as a fundraiser for the Mother's Club.

Local fashions were featured during the three hour show including Village Palm, La Jolie Rose, Hannah Bear Boutique, Boutique Bellissima, Dawood, Yoga Shelter, Voila Boutique and Hydrangea Boutique. 

South's Fashion and Fabrics class also showed off their projects, which included clothing made and many designed by students. 

It's the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Grosse Pointe South Mother's Club, which uses its monies to invest in the school building, students and curriculum. Club President Pamela Flom said previously the goal was to raise $35,000. The total amount raised will not be known for few more weeks, Flom said.

Event co-chairs Polly Tech and Barb Palazzolo said the show went wonderfully and both complimented the hard work, collaboration and talents of the students, whom make the show happen. 

They expected a crowd of about 400 but had closer to 450, which Flom said was pleasing. Based on the great turnout, she thinks the event was likely a financial success for the club.
