Fashion in the City Begins
Fashion in the City got underway last week. There will be 10 days of events, activities and in-store offers and a significant media and PR campaign to encourage shoppers to come into the central city to shop. It’s a great way for HOTCity businesses to support their fellow fashion retailers, so get involved and come along to some of the events or do a bit of shopping! Included in this year's Fashion in the City is a new event -New Zealand's Longest Catwalk presented by Schwarzkopf,a catwalk show with around 40 models showcasing over 70 outfits styled and selected from HOTCity retailers.The catwalk will be installe in a zigzag formation along a section of Queen Street, between Wyndham and Shortland streets.
