Coventry Resident to Walk Runway at Gloria Gemma Fashion Show

Coventry resident Nicole Bourget is one of twenty-models to walk the runway at the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation’s Our Heroes Annual Survivor Fashion Show.

One of the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation’s “Signature Events,” the sixth annual fashion show takes place on Saturday, May 11 at the Rhodes on the Pawtuxet [60 Rhodes Place in Cranston]. Tickets are $45.00 each and a table of ten (10) is $425.00.  For more information, visit our website atwww.gloriagemma.org or call 401-861-4376.

Three groups of models will showcase the latest styles provided by some of Rhode Island’s premiere boutiques and clothiers: individuals diagnosed before the age of 40, individuals undergoing treatment, and family members.

In addition to the fashion show portion, this year’s event features a marketplace, entertainment, and a seated dinner.

“Our fashion show is not just a charity fundraiser,” said Maria Gemma. “Our event celebrates the unique spirit and beauty of people faced with breast cancer and is a tribute to everyone affected.”

“We encourage people to purchase tickets as soon as possible, as we sold out last year. We expect the same turnout this year again,” Maria concluded.
