Team Décor (the production group organizing this fundraiser) is going all out to bring the aura, fun, glitz and experience of a high-style New York Fashion Week show. Highlights include a well-known host - WRSI’s Monte Belmonte, and a red carpet scene with Desha Peacock - a self-described lover of fashion and design (the deshashow.blogspot.com) who will interview guests as they arrive. And, to help showcase the creativity and art involved in fashion design, on loan from the Shelburne Museum’s IN FASHION: High Style, 1690-2011 exhibit, is the winning Curators' Choice design created by Kyle Edmund Pearson, a student from the Fashion Institute of Technology. The display will greet guests as they enter the building. Pearson competed in a competition sponsored by the Shelburne Museum.
The Not So Silent Auction will feature vignettes to dramatize the auction items. Major items include stays in apartments or homes in Florida, Italy, New York and Boston. The Boston auction vignette includes tickets to the Patriots game on New Year’s Day and also tickets to a Red Sox game.
The local and regional designers who are creating these unique fashion looks include Truly Alvarenga, Maria Pugnetti, Alice Vogel, Rene Gerrior, Pamela Moore, Cindy Lesczak, Maia Bissette, Kris McDermet, Cynthia Nims, and Benjamin Clark.
Fine hors d’oeuvres, desserts and drinks are being provided by some of the area’s leading purveyors including Terri Ziter, Sharon Myers & Kris McDermet, Tristan Toleno, Our Lady of Fatima Guild, and Twin Valley Junior Iron Chefs. A full cash bar is being set out by Avigliano Catering (a division of Honora Winery & Vineyard).
