FAQS - Fashion Parades. 

What's this all about?  Many clubs and organizations, such as Church Groups, Lifestyle/Retirement Villages, Sporting Clubs and Seniors Groups ask us to organize a fashion parade for their members. You may use this occasion as a fundraiser or perhaps just for entertainment value. Our fashion parades are always professionally run and a lot of fun. We ask ladies from the venue to model for us. We provide all the fashions so those present can purchase from our ranges after the parade. We offer a collection of smart casual lifestyle ladies clothing. Featuring stylish, comfortable pieces that fit most shapes and sizes 8-22. You will find a mix of new designs and familiar favourites to update and complement your own style and wardrobe.

When could we have a fashion show? Our fashion shows are seasonal, autumn/winter showings run from March - June and spring/summer shows run from August - November. During other months of the year, we are preparing for the seasons ahead and planning the occasional holiday.

Which areas do you cover? Sydney and surrounding suburbs mainly. We do occasionally offer shows in other areas, this is subject to distance from our place, as well as how many you think will attend. If you'd like to discuss this with us, please feel free to give us a call.

Do you have to be a registered charity or organization to hold an event? Nope. We hold many events for groups or individuals who are looking to raise funds for another charity. We also hold events for many groups typically not registered as a charity such as seniors groups, retirement villages, sporting/bowling clubs etc. 

Does our venue have to be on the ground floor? Ahh. A very good question. Yes please. Moving eight racks of clothing, the P.A. system, mirrors etc. requires very heavy lifting. It is potentially dangerous for us to carry them up flights of stairs as we are getting too old.  However, we do have a small ramp which is suitable for a couple of stairs so give us a call to discuss your needs. With regards to lifts, normally they are simply not big enough for our racks.

What time will you arrive? Our fashion shows are either in the morning or afternoon. Usually starting at 10am or 2pm and we require access to your chosen venue 1.5 hours beforehand. This allows everyone ample time to set up and prepare for the show ahead and everything is ready when your guests arrive.

How long does the parade take? The fashion show itself will last around 40 minutes. During this time, we will showcase a selection of garments from our current range. Our collections always follow the seasons and we have a mixture of classic and fashionable lines to suit ladies of all ages, shapes and sizes from 8-22.

Who are the models? The models are all volunteers from the organization holding the event. They can be any age (our youngest so far has been in her early 20’s and oldest early 90’s) and any size but ideally somewhere between 10 & 20. This helps the audience relate to the model and the outfits she is wearing. We like 6 models per show but are completely flexible.

Then what happens? Once the show has finished, we recommend the raffle or lucky door prize is drawn should you choose to have one. From experience this has proved the ideal time, as the audience is still in one place with their attention focused on the speaker. The ladies will quickly become distracted once the shopping begins. When the parade and raffle/announcements have finished, the ladies are free to browse through the racks and try on clothes.

Feeling hungry? After the ladies have had time to try on clothes and make their purchases, we all need a cup of tea. Many organizations like to provide a morning or afternoon tea or a light lunch and refreshments for their guests - it’s up to you.

What do Golden Girls need? We will require a desk for payments and bagging up purchases. Usually this is close to the entrance/exit area. Here your ladies can purchase their chosen garments using either cash or most major forms of debit and credit cards. We will also need a private fitting room for the ladies and models to change in.
