Migration :: FELT fashion 2016 :: Whimsy, Drama, Charm and Imagination

Migration :: FELT fashion 2016 was an evening of glamour, creativity and color. For the event Penticton’s Shatford Centre was transformed into a venue rivaling any big city’s.

The 150 guests were treated to Okanagan wine, tapas and beauty.

 Susan lopatecki, a local Okanagan textile designer and owner of SASS boutique was our hostess. We appreciate all her work both onstage and backstage. She was helped in this endeavor by Fiona Duthie, instructor and designer, and Rene Corder Evans, also one of our talented designers.
