FELSTED fashionistas flaunted their furs and frocks at their own fashion show and raised over £2,000 for charity.
Sixth form pupils pushed aside their textbooks and took on the role of models for the Garnetts' and Windsor's Charity Fashion Show on February 28 and March 1.
The money raised at the eighth biennial event, held in the school's Hunt Theatre, will be split equally between four charities close to the pupils' hearts.
They are Breakthrough Breast Cancer, Children's Liver Disease Foundation, Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY) and Sparkle Malawi. Sparkle Malawi, a charity founded by Old Felstedian, Sarah Brook, supports the Gods Will Orphan Centre in Malawi and helps offer an education and homes to nearly 400 vulnerable children.
Sarah Hookway, the show's coordinator, said: "I am so thankful to all the people who contributed to the show, allowing us to raise such a fantastic amount of money for our charities. I especially want to thank students Alice Schneidau and Brogan Ball for all their help and support."
The evening, which was compered by upper sixth students Brogan Ball and Will Hiett, showcased a variety of fashion trends from local designers, such as Jacks, Stag, Pink Strawberry, Cloud IX, Ruby Rooms and Wardrobe, as well as some student designers in Felsted.
Hair salon, Rumour Hair, in Chelmsford, and Benefit makeup also ensured the models looked the part.
The highlight of the evening was a selection of jumpsuits from OnePiece, which generously donated a jumpsuit, priced at £139, to the charity raffle.
