Vera Wang to headline3

The two day fiesta of fashion will take place in the historic and atmospheric setting of St George’s Market on Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 March and Ms Wang’s Wedding Collection will be a major attraction in the eclectic mix of designer, High Street and vintage looks.

Launching the event at a suitably stylish occasion at Belfast’s Fitzwilliam Hotel (a recent winner in the Magners Light Style Awards), James Simpson, Marketing Manager for Magners Light, said, “This is the big ‘show off’ event of Spring and we can expect to see almost as much trend setting fashion in the audience as there will be on the catwalk.  There’s no doubt about it: if you aspire to be amongst Northern Ireland’s beautiful people – part of the in crowd – then you just have to be part of Magners Light Spring into Summer 2010.

“The show comes at a time when everyone is eager to get rid of the winter woollies and the dodgy headgear that we’ve been wrapped up in for so long.  When the catwalk is revealed at St George’s Market it’s the sign that Spring has finally sprung!”

The event will see internationally acclaimed designer Vera Wang unveil, for the first time ever in Northern Ireland, her bridal collections, available at Brown Thomas, as worn by celebrity brides such as Victoria Beckham and Andrea Corr and available at Brown Thomas.

Also, a first for Magners Light Spring into Summer, Vera Wang will award one of the University of Ulster students the money-can’t-buy prize of a week’s work experience with her top couturier Kiko Randon in London, plus a £500 cash prize from Magners Light.
