Cupid’s Closet – an upcycled fashion show with a cause

Lyons Township High School’s Fashion Club invites you to an upcycled fashion show, Cupid's Closet, Friday, February 28, at 7pm in the North Campus Reber Center, 100 S. Brainard Ave., LaGrange. Admission is $2, with all proceeds going to Fashion Club.

Members have been working for months gathering clothing donations, upcycling clothing items into something new and fresh, and preparing for the fashion show. The show will include clothing upcycled by Fashion Club members and styling by students from their own closets or donations from staff, students or The Hope Chest, a local resale shop.

The fashion show not only spotlights the upcycling work of Fashion Club members, it also brings the important work of The Hope Chest to light. The local resale shop benefits Pillars Community Health's Constance Morris House, which provides safety and support for women and children involved with domestic violence. The show encourages donations of gently used, upscale clothing and accessories to the store.
