The show will feature fashionable looks inspired by four local fashion personalities. The styles are distinct, fierce, timeless and elegant so you can find what fits your lifestyle. Fashion has become much of a tech product due to the many social media outlets at our fingertips and the explosion of influencers as media moguls.

Secondhand clothing is showing up in everyday office wear, streetwear and evening wear. Besides the incentive of saving money, thrifting has also become trendy. The thrill is the challenge of finding something unique that everybody else isn’t going to wear. This year’s Fashion Show will explode with many ideas on the runway with models wearing pieces of clothing found in Goodwill stores.

Tickets for the event include a full-course dinner, access to the fashion show and shopping at the sale after the show. Individual tickets are $50 each with table seating for 10 people. Purchase tickets by calling the Goodwill Marketing Department at 865-588-8567 or www.goodwillknoxville.org/fashionshow.
