On Thursday 20th August over 50 delegates joined us for an evening of fun, fashion and of course plenty of networking! This year we were back at Jarrold and had an exclusive sneak peek to their newly refurbished fashion floor.
The evening started with talk on the development of the fashion floor before delegates were rounded into groups to start the networking activity: The Outfit Challenge. Our delegates were sent off around the fashion floor with a budget of £250 and were set the challenge of finding the most ‘on-trend’ outfit. Throughout the activity there were tough decisions; especially in the shoe department; but all delegates returned with an in budget outfit ready for judging.
Jarrold’s personal stylist Lucy Hurrel was on hand to judge the outfits. A delegate from each team was sent up to present the outfits to Lucy and explain their choices. One delegate in particular, Trevor Saunders of Grosvenor Casino, gave an impressive presentation of his group’s outfit named ‘a day at the races’, and even used his 20% off voucher to keep his outfit in budget!
Following the networking activity delegates had time to relax with a beauty demonstration from Jarrold’s expert make-up artist who demonstrated several different make-up brands for delegates to indulge in. Up next came the fashion show with rounds of casual, smart-casual and special occasion wear all modelled by Jarrold staff.
The evening was closed with a raffle prize draw an exclusive hour for delegates to shop around the new fashion floor with a selection of vouchers given to them from Jarrold. All delegates left with a big smile on their face, and several left with a new piece for their wardrobe!
