Skilled models, entertaining MCs, an attainable selection of clothing, and a great meal to start off the evening, all combined to make the “Haute” Summer Fashion Show Extravaganza, a great Friday evening event. The fashion show held July 1, at the Ramada Inn West in Topeka, featured two great modeling troupes: Troupe Conture from Tulsa and Models Refined of Topeka. Fashions modeled included causal, lounge, business and evening wear. The “A Touch of Yellow” Segment and finale were particularly stunning.
The event was a fundraiser for It Takes A Village, Inc. in support of their upcoming Thanksgiving production “The Chocolate Nutcracker.”
