What is it?
The Fashion Show Luncheon is a midweek/midday activity featuring a catered lunch served buffet-style, table service provided by current eighth grade students, and a fashion show highlighting local clothing stores using St. Aloysius students, parents and grandparents as models.
There is typically also a “vendor showcase” where attendees can browse prior to the event, as well as a bake sale where attendees can purchase sweet treats for their table guests or to take home and enjoy later.
What makes this event truly unique is the décor. Seating is eight people to a table, which are typically – though not necessarily – purchased as a full table sponsorship (individual tickets are also available for sale). Tables are then individually decorated by the “table sponsor” or a parent volunteer according to the theme that is announced that year.
Previous themes have included “destinations,” “traditions,” “books and movies,” etc.
Tables are decorated with different linens, china, flatware, glassware, centerpieces, etc. giving the room a lively, colorful and varied backdrop to the day’s fashion show activity.
The event also features a special performance by the current kindergarten class, and kindergarten parents who host a table get priority seating.
Volunteers are needed to plan for, set up, staff (bake sale booth), and clean up the event. -
