The week 21st-29th March 2015 has seen the 6th Annual "Bath in Fashion", regional fashion week, within which a host of fashion related events have taken place, from fashion shows and felt workshops, to fashionista afternoon teas.
Managed and funded by the "Bath Business Improvement District" alongside a vast range of local businesses from around the city, the events hope to raise awareness for local retailers and aim to help uphold the city's cultural and fashionable reputation.
Out of the vast variety of events taking place during the week, Katie, Bea (my flatmates) and I (shown in above selfie) decided on going to the Wednesday 7PM Runway fashion show which showcased an array of 2015 spring/summer styles, created out of top garments from 19 different Bath retailers, including Jolly's, Reiss and Instant Vintage.
The show was styled by top fashion stylist and creative director Rebekah Roy, and produced by the leading event producer John Walford, their collaboration helped to produced a beautiful, fast paced and entertaining show suitable for all ages.
Not only was it an amazing show, it also came at an amazing price of £5 for students and £16 pre student discount; the price not only included the seat tickets, but also came with a free glass of red/white wine and snacks.
The venue for the show, the 1771 historic and grade I listed Bath Assembly rooms Ballroom, was once at the heart of fashionable Georgian society and similarly for the show acted as a fashionable, elegant and classic backdrop for the catwalk, helping to create a truly special experience.
Below are photos from the show, I hope you enjoy...
Bea, Katie and I thought there to be no better way to finish the wonderful evening than to visit Slug and Lettuce Bar for a few tasty and very girly cocktails.
We went for a, Cosmopolitan, Woowoo, Mojito and finally a Strawberry Daiquiri all helping us to feel a little bit merry just in time for heading home for easter holidays.
I hope you enjoyed reading about my experience at Bath in Fashion week, and I hope I have inspired you to explore the regional events that your area has to offer.
Happy Exploring
