Plans for the 25th Robinsons of Bawtry Annual Charity Fashion Show are well underway with the event set to be extra special to celebrate the events Silver anniversary.

The team at the award winning designer fashion boutique will once again put on a fantastic evening at the China Rose, Bawtry on Sunday 1st October 2017 where guests will enjoy a taste of its Autumn/Winter collections, brought to life by models, with amazingly choreographed scenes, from Doncaster based company Strutz Models & Dance Academy.

“We can’t quite believe that this is our 25th sell out fashion show that was created by the boutiques original owner Tony Robinson in memory of his first wife who he lost to cancer, and we have been delighted to continue with the event since we obtained ownership of the boutique 8 years ago” said Russell Jones Robinsons of Bawtry.

Dr Kathryn Scott, Chief Executive at Yorkshire Cancer Research, said: “It’s wonderful to be chosen once again as the charity partner for Robinson of Bawtry’s brilliant fashion show. The fact that the event is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year is testament to all the hard work and commitment that has gone into making it such a huge success. We’d like to thank everyone who has supported the show since it first began back in 1992.

“Over the years, this event has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for Yorkshire Cancer Research. This money has played a vital role in helping us ensure that people in Yorkshire have access to the very best treatment and care. Thanks to businesses like Robinsons, we have been able to invest in life-saving projects, from community health initiatives to clinical trials.”

The show will feature iconic contemporary fashion brands including Armani, Hugo Boss, Mulberry, Escada, Jacob Cohen, Belstaff, Michael Kors, Versace, Jeffery West and Eton.

“Thanks go to our sponsors Alexander Calder Financial Challenge and Howard & Elaine Huntridge for their support and to all our loyal customers who attend the event each year giving generously and helping us to create a lasting legacy,” said Russell. “Without them this would not be possible and for that we are grateful. The longevity of this event is testament to the support they gave Tony and now us as we continue to generate funds for vital research into cancer in the Yorkshire region.”

A Champagne draw, auction and raffle will add to the fun with a Mulberry bag being up for grabs in the annual game of ‘Heads and Tails’ along with a programme of first class entertainment.
