Year 2 Fashion Marketing students from The University of Northampton have organised a fashion auction to give people the opportunity to buy one-off garments designed by talented up-and-coming designers.
The auction will be held from 7pm, with a catwalk show inside a gothic-themed dollhouse commencing at 8pm, at Ghost nightclub, Adelaide Place, Northampton on Wednesday 25 March 2009.
Alongside the catwalk show and auction, guests will also have the opportunity to enter a raffle prize draw to win prizes such as a pair of Chanel sunglasses, a full body massage, hair and beauty products, gift vouchers and much more.
The event will showcase garments made by some of the University's Fashion pathway students. These one-off pieces can't be found anywhere else and will be auctioned off on the evening by VIP guest and local music artist Elena Josepha.
Tickets for the auction cost £4 in advance, £5 on the door and are available from both Avenue and Park campus shops.
All funds raised from the event will go towards the students' exhibition and showcase at London's prestigious Graduate Fashion Week 2009.
