Forest Hill Fashion Week: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Party
Sunday 25 September 2016, 1–4pm V22 Louise House
Kids come and have fun at the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Party where we will have lots of dancing, games and treats. The Kids' Catwalk Show will also take place during the fun and games.
Forest Hill Fashion Week showcases local talent in a festival of fashion. Featuring both established and emerging designers, the fashion week is organised by Forest Hill Arts: a group of volunteers with local shops, cafés, bars, other venues and community interest groups all joining forces to fund and host an exciting line-up of fashion-themed events.
The 2015 theme was ‘Creativity, Community and Culture’. Various events over the week involved the whole community. The catwalk event closed with a show from Pavement2catwalk, an inspiring organisation dedicated to involving people with mental health problems, addiction issues and disabilities in creative projects using fashion and design.
Founded in 2013 by South East London local Louise Brooks, this biannual event builds on the momentum created by the SEE3 Portas Pilot investment to regenerate local high streets in the area.
FHFW is a family friendly, inclusive, community festival with something to offer for people of all ages and will feature workshops, exhibitions, family events and catwalk shows hosted by Forest Hill’s local businesses.
Anyone under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.
