The Fashion Show with society belles as mannequins gave an already enthusiastic crowd another thrill. When Miss Perkes, Mrs. Haskell, Mrs. Rodger, Mrs. Redington, Mrs. Wolle and Mrs. Gay came.out across the hall and posed on the platform beneath the clock one large and ecstatic O! broke from the audience. Critical and well informed experts in style frankly showed their surprise at the originality of the creations shown and the exquisite fabrics. All the costumes were lent for the occasion by leading shops.
The attendance has been most encouraging and the patronage of the stalls very generous.
