Backstage at the Boardwalk Fashion Show 8.22.09

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Our NE Boardwalk fashion show last Saturday was a huge success!  I literally had people wanting to buy the clothes straight off the model’s back.  It was jam packed with all sorts of different fashions from all the wonderful local NE shops.  It was a perfect Summer day filled with fun and I think everyone had a great time, it was also a bonus to see all the familiar faces in the crowd.  Oh how we love our Parc customers!   Everyone was telling me they had such a great time and was amazed at all the shopping NE had to offer.  Special thanks to Ali and Alexis from ShopGirls FM 107.1 and DJ Chris Dunn of Creative Ironwerks who did a fantastic job keeping the crowd entertained.  More pictures from the runway coming soon!

Here’s the Parc crew working hard backstage getting all the looks ready for the show:
