A combination of beautiful flowers and a range of autumn/winter fashions will be presented at the Matakana Hall on Friday, May 17.
The Warkworth Floral Art Club is hosting a Flowers & Fashion event, which will include raffles, a trading table and afternoon tea.
Six top floral designers will work on their designs in the hall during the show, while club members Diedra Anderson, Frances Moors and Janice Chambers model 18 garments from Matakana boutique De Lovely.
The fashions will range from casual to cocktail and evening wear.
Organiser Helen Potter, who moved to Warkworth four years ago, says she organised a similar event in Wellington several years ago, which proved to be a great success.
“Flowers and fashion make a lovely combination,” Potter says.
The event is a major fundraiser for the club, which uses the proceeds to bring outside judges and tutors in for workshops where members have the opportunity to learn new techniques and expand their floral art knowledge.
Doors open for Flowers & Fashion at 1.30pm, for a 2pm start. Tickets are $25 at the door.
