The PreLoved Fashion Event – Salisbury is back!

In aid of Salisbury District Hospital’s Stars Appeal Charity, the event is back with a ‘Party Edit’ that, this time, includes sustainable makers and sellers to create a unique shopping experience!

Local businesswoman Lynne Rose, MD at Personnel Placements and a Salisbury BID Director, is joined by Corinne Whillock, creative designer and jewellery maker and owner of Lulu & Boo Sustainable Jewellery and together with Colin Ford and Mick Whillock are hosting ‘The Preloved Fashion and Sustainable Shopping Event’ at Salisbury Guildhall on the evening of Thursday 2nd November.

The four are part of a 37-strong group of local Salisbury Stars Appeal Trekkers who are fundraising ahead of the next trek to The Lost City in Colombia in April next year.

Lynne and Corinne have gathered together preloved, vintage and sustainable businesses, including local traders Sisters Wardrobe, Made by SJP, Sustainable Style Boutique, Blondies Retro Vintage and Aspiga Wilton, as well as selling a range of vintage, preloved and sustainable fashion and accessories, will be showcasing some unique and one-off pieces in 2 fashion show sessions during the evening.  

Valse Collection, a preloved designer brand, Lulu & Boo Sustainable Jewellery, Regent Tailoring, Twizzell UK, Made by BellaBee, Auburn Groove Vintage, Tina’s Retro Vintage, Zesty Reworks, Ruths Preloved and Merryn Rock Jewellery are just some of the other sellers confirmed for the event.

Salisbury’s Muse Hairdressing, who will be working with the event fashion show models and The Wig and Quill, who will run the event bar, are also supporting the event by providing their services free of charge.

The Stars Appeal Trekkers also have their own ‘preloved boutique’ and all proceeds from the event will be donated to Stars Appeal. Each trekker has different reasons for trekking and fundraising, from saying thank you for the care and support they or a loved one has received from Salisbury Hospital to having worked as part of the NHS Team who deliver care, but they have all seen firsthand the difference the extra facilities and equipment the Stars Appeal provides above that provided by the NHS makes to patients, their families and staff at the hospital.

Lynne and Corinne said, "It’s great to be able to bring this unique type of event to Salisbury. We’re thrilled to be able to bring some amazing sustainable sellers and makers together to make this a really unique shopping experience and promote sustainable shopping, too.

"Being able to raise funds for Salisbury Hospital’s Stars Appeal at the same time makes this event really special and even more worthwhile!"

The event runs from 7 pm until 11 pm, and tickets are available on their website www.prelovedfashioneventsalisbury.co.uk, or from Sisters Wardrobe on Winchester Street, Salisbury.

The ticket price includes a welcome glass of prosecco, a mini goodie bag, a chance to win a champagne hamper and musical entertainment throughout the evening.

There is also more information on the full list of event sellers, evening entertainers and sponsorship opportunities for any business that would like to support the event and help Lynne, Corinne, Colin and Mick raise as much as they can for the Stars Appeal.
