Vera Wang Charity Fashion Show- The Pearl Qatar.

 Chrylsania Goh Sorensen & Myself at the Show.

On Saturday 23rd April 2011 I was very fortunate to be invited to attend the Vera Wang Charity Fashion Show, held in support of the Rumaillah Hospital to raise funds for their 'Occupation Therapy Department'.

The exclusive ladies fashion show showcased the Spring/Summer 2011 collection of Vera Wang’s ready-to-wear collection, that resonate with the designer’s signature layering, intricate draping and exquisite attention to detail. As a universally iconic American designer, Vera Wang's creations are always a pleasure to see walk down the runway.

United Development Company’s Executive Vice President Fashion & Retail, Kirk Martin commented, “The Pearl-Qatar has always supported charitable causes, so it is wonderful that Vera Wang selected to promote international fashion and endorse such a benevolent cause on our Island”.

It was fabulous to see over 120 ladies attend this sensational fashion show and demonstrate their support for this worthy charitable cause. 

Here are some pictures from the runway! Hope you guys like them! x
