Don't Miss: Saint Strut

If you live in Saint John, you might have heard mentionings of Saint Stut....whether it's been the Facebook page, the elevator doors in Brunswick Square, tweets on Twitter...there's been quiet, but building, rumble about this event.

Slowly the details started to pour, and I realized it was Brunswick Square's annual fall fashion show, only with a new face, new presentation. It was when I heard the names behind the project that I decided I wanted to attend. That, and the fact that local health care would benefit from the proceeds, motivated me to purchase a ticket and attend this new approach to displaying fashion in Saint John.

Brunswick Square's annual event has been revamped and restyled under the artistic direction of Judith Mackin. From what I've gathered, video and photography from Sean McGrath will serve as large backdrops- check out this sneak peek Sean posted a few days ago:

It's also been announced that Saint John's mayor, Mel Norton, and his wife, will serve as the event's hosts and emcees. Benefiting from this fundraiser will be the Babies in Utero project of the Saint John Regional Hospital (click here for more info).

Thanks to the IODE and the organizers of Saint Strut for raising funds that will benefit Babes in Utero! fb.me/15MlN0I2B

If their resumes and past works are any indication, hearing Judith's and Sean's names attached to this project was enough to have me convinced that this was an event I didn't want to miss.

Other perks that event-goers will enjoy: a silent auction, a glass of wine, food, and amazing giveaways. I'd guessing, in advance, that Brunswick Square definitely one-uped themselves from previous events they've hosted! Check out the Facebook event for more details.

Nine of the shopping centre's stores will be featuring their fall fashions on NWH models, with make-up being done by Perfumes Plus and hair by Hairacy's.

So I've got my ticket already- hurry up and get yours before they sell out- I've heard the numbers are dwindling (there was only 30 left as of Friday) and there's only 2 days until the event!

Only a handful of @saintstrut tickets left. Phone the Admin Office tomorrow if you're a fashion lover hoping to attend!658-1000
