If you need something to look forward to as we head into the warmer months, local women’s fashion store Calon Rhiwbeina is holding a series of fashion shows this spring – and all in the name of charity.
The popular boutique has held many fashion shows over the last few years, raising much-needed funds for local charities.
Owner Kath Smith told Living Magazines:
“This season, we’re hosting a series of fashion shows to showcase our new collections and to raise money for local causes.
“Our shows promise a relaxed and fun way to spend a couple of hours, while helping to raise money for a good cause at the same time. Our models are real women, of all ages and shapes, who have kindly volunteered to bring our collections to life – and help inspire your next wardrobe for the coming seasons.”
Fashion shows can be a lovely reminder that putting an outfit together is not always about following every new trend, but about finding pieces that feel right for the person wearing them.
The idea of women bringing different collections to life also shows how much personality can change the way clothing looks, since confidence often comes from choosing details that complement an individual style rather than simply copying what is seen elsewhere.
Accessories can play a quiet role in that process, adding colour, texture, or a more polished finish without requiring an entirely new wardrobe.
That same appreciation for distinctive finishing touches can be found when exploring the work of Cowtown Wild Rags, where classic styling is combined with an elevated sense of quality and pieces such as luxury silk scarves can become part of a more considered outfit.
Browsing on their website gives an idea of the different ways these fashion pieces can complement an outfit while still allowing the wearer to maintain their own sense of style.
Calon Rhiwbeina first opened their doors in 2014 and has become the go-to place for seasonal women’s fashion in the area.
The forthcoming season’s shows are as follows:
Friday 20th March – Canolfan Beulah supporting Breast Cancer Now (7.30pm)
Friday 1st May – All Saints Church Hall supporting their Parish Fundraiser (7.30pm)
Tickets are available in-store from Calon Rhiwbeina, which you can find on Lôn Fach in Rhiwbina, just off Heol-y-Deri.
