Passion 4 Fashion set for success

This years Passion 4 Fashion is gaining momentum and looking like it will be a spectacular event!

The show has attracted backing from successful local businesses Edgewater Resort and Wanaka Pharmacy who are the major sponsors of this years show. Leigh Stock and Aaron Heath have joined forces to support this show and the festival to ensure that it is a night to remember!

Wanakafest Event organiser Laurel Morrison says, the progress that this show has seen this year is all down to Kasha Szot.  Kasha is the Local Wanaka Owner/Operator of K-Dance Studios. She also runs and co-ordinated the local modelling agency and has been working with her models to co-ordinate the show. Kasha has taken this spectacular show under her wings and is turning it into an event to be respected nation wide! She has  gained the assistance of Gena Bagley-Konia as a proffessional make up artist for the show and the two of them have managed to attract  support by  International Make-up Brand Revlon. With Revlon on board, this is a fantastic opportunity for the growth of Wanakafest, as well as the Passion for Fashion show.

Kasha has attracted many local shops and designers and is excited about the momentum that the show is gaining. One this is sure, this is one night not to be missed!

A roof, windows and all wrapped up

With the Roof in place, the windows in, all the framing completed and the house all wrapped up, it is becoming easier to imagine how this fabulous house will look once completed! We have had such a great response from individual trades people and local businesses with help towards this project.
