gowns by leading British couturiers, gleaming British cars of latest design and Hongkong's loveliest mannequins will combine to present one of the most dazzling fashion shows ever to be held in Hongkong in October.
It will be held in the Jockey Club enclosure on
two days-October 24 and 25. This autumn event, which is in aid of the Society for the Protection of Children, will be unique in featuring some of the attractions of a Concours d'Elegance with the evening fashion parade, under floodlights, out of doors,
A special car ramp wil be erected and beautifully- gowned models will be seen arriving in an equally elegant automobile, in the Jockey Club grounds.
The British Trade Commissioner, Mr G. B. W.
Harrison, will be sponsoring the show which will feature British cars, textiles, and fashion crea- tions.
There wil also be Chinese gowns by local designers who have attracted much interest in the East, and many other parts of the world where they have been spotlighted by television and the press. Many fashion houses in the Colony have offered stylish contributions to the show, and up-to-date accessories are being sent out from England. There is much interest among younger members of the social set. Thirty mannequins-who give their services in aid of the charity are shortly to be selected.
Mrs E. L. Elias is Convenor of this year's show.
