‘Swinging Sixties’ was theme of Fashion Show

BY

Tie-dyed shirts and mini-skirts, go-go boots and a yellow submarine – these were just a few of the iconic sights from the 1960s that filled the Lodge for the Canyon Lake Woman’s Club’s “Swinging Sixties” Fashion Show on April 24.

Organized by Terri Ireland, Lyne Hall and the rest of the Fashion Show Committee, it was an event that reminded many of those in attendance of their youthful years, while giving them a look at fashions that are now in style 50 years later. Here are a few scenes from the day.

Prior to the luncheon and fashion show, ladies got a chance to buy tickets for door prizes, theme baskets and the grand prize drawing of $2,500 (won by Pat Chronis). They could also bid on silent auction gifts that filled the Lighthouse Restaurant.

To open the show, Terri narrated highlights from the 1960s while Lyne performed dance moves. The Sixties could never be remembered without its music, several numbers of which were wonderfully performed by Aprile DeAnne, owner of Just 4 Gifts in the Towne Center and a regular performer in the Lodge lounge.

Fashions for the show were provided by the Canyon Lake Pro Shop, Me Boutique, Up Your Alley, Coeur d’Alene, Lemonchello’s and Max and Me. Models listed in the program were Dolores Weinberger, Joyce Theodora, Mary Craton, Sue Collins, Bonnie Carnagey, Karen Dohery, Jayne Stanyon, Dee Zasio, Pat Smith, Gail McCall, Lou DeYoung, Carmelita Kubota, Kathy Bacon, Lydia Beasley, Phoebe Barber, Pam Smith, Tammy Murphy, Carmen Cortez, Cindy Jacobs, KT Bowers, Johnnie D’Alessandro and Vi Henderson.

As Woman’s Club President Candy Petersen says, “Putting on the Woman’s Club Fashion Shows throughout the years requires intense planning, creativity, hours of meetings and tons of hard work. All of the chairs, co-chairs and committee members come together with their special talents and endless energy to make this event a success. These ladies all deserve a huge round of applause for all their involvement and tireless efforts.”
