Last Thursday Goodwill of Greater Washington hosted the Fashion of Goodwill runway show and silent auction at the French Embassy in Washington, D.C.
Drawing on the influences of Parisian and modern styles, Alexandria-based designer Tu-Anh Nguyen styled the models with 70 outfits of clothing from Goodwill. Some vintage designer pieces even popped up in the mix of used clothing.
The third annual event, “Under Paris Skies,” not only showed the area’s women how to get a good deal, but also encouraged supporting Goodwill’s mission of educating and employing the disabled.
A nice gallery of the runway show is available at The Washington Post.
An ebay store for the DC Goodwill clothing is also up.
Cheers: Mary-Kate, Karl Lagerfeld, grunge, gypsies, birds -----
Jeers: Ronsons, neon, ombre, gold, pants
