Festival Place’s annual weekend-long fashion extravaganza will take place from October 26-28 with free catwalk shows, fashion and beauty consultations.

Celebrity guest Wendy Elsmore, and style guru and Festival Place blogger Ellie Pierce, will share their hints and tips with shoppers. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, watch catwalk shows in Porchester Square, packed full of inspiration, style and latest trends.

Wendy will host hair and make-up style workshops as part of Designer Day at Debenhams on Friday at 1pm and 5.30pm.    

Teens can enjoy a free hair and beauty consultation in the Beauty Bubble on Saturday at 12pm, 1.45pm and 2.45pm, and Ellie Pierce will be talking to local star Lauren Thalia about her fashion style and favourite shops. Lauren, who won Festival Place’s Festival Factor in 2010 and featured on this year’s Britain’s Got Talent on ITV1, will also perform.

Finally, on Sunday at 12pm, 1pm and 3pm, Wendy will come to the rescue of all women in a hurry with her fashion fixes in under five minutes. 

Look out for competitions and free fashion and beauty giveaways up for grabs over the three days.
