Para, a designer and marketer of computer-related accessories and purses, will host a fashion show, "My Future's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades," 1-3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 29, at the North Bend Theatre.
The fund-raiser benefits the children of Treehouse, a nonprofit organization that provides developmental opportunities and educational support to foster children. Money collected will assist the Wearhouse program of Treehouse in its ongoing commitment to improve the lives of King County's foster children.
"My Future's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades" will feature a 1940s-2002 wearables theme, with period costumes and jewelry and similar styles of today to be modeled on the runway. A $15 ticket covers the fashion show as a donation to Treehouse.
Tickets for the fashion show may be purchased in advance online at www.tree
