You need to look polished but most importantly you need to feel comfortable in your own skin. “Don’t reveal too much. Remember the rules – if you are showing off a bit of cleavage then wear a longer skirt. If you have a long split in your dress don’t show off your chest. Don’t have everything on show – be discreet. “Accessories are important to pull your outfit together – shoes, short gloves and a matching fascinator or hat. “If you are going to wear something fitted make sure you wear the right garments underneath so there are no outlines or bumps. “If you decide on a spray tan, have a trial a few weeks before. You don’t want to turn orange on the day. Book your hair, nails and makeup in advance.” Airline uniforms land in city AN AWARD-WINNING exhibition that looks at the uniforms, aircraft and stories of the country’s flagship airline will open in Christchurch this weekend.

Connected’ exhibition opens at Canterbury Museum this weekend. It moves into the aircraft and flight aspect of the airline’s history, including the TEAL flying boat era, and the early days of flight in Canterbury. The story of former Christchurch Mayor Henry Wigram’s flying school and Lady Constance Stewart’s involvement with the Canterbury Aero Club are explored. It also looks at tourism pioneer Rodolph Wigley, who founded the Mt Cook Group that later included Mount Cook Airlines. The exhibition also features a virtual reality in-flight experience and takes a look at its promotion posters, videos and examples of how the airline has adapted over 75 years.

Breast Cancer Cure is trying to help reduce that statistic by holding a fashion show in Christchurch, and around the country, with New Zealand’s biggest designers. The nationwide Fashion for a Cure charity show later this month will display collections from Kiwi designers to raise funds for breast cancer research. Breast Cancer Cure general manager Phillipa Green said the event is important as it provides financial support for ongoing study. “This show is absolutely vital for us. It’s our biggest earner and it’s important because we don’t do a bucket collection day or fundraising week so this is one of the ways that we raise a lot of money from the public. They’re actually donating it and getting a lot back in return,” she said. A pool of high-end designers from around the country will light up the Christchurch Art Gallery on September 22. COOP, Knuefermann, Moochi, Andrea Moore, Storm, Trelise Cooper, Working Style and Zambesi will all show their Spring/ Summer collections on the catwalk. It’s the first time Elisabeth Findlay’s Zambesi will appear at the Christchurch show and she’ll be bringing a range men’s and women’s clothes to the table. Designers will also donate items from the show to put up for auction to add to the money pot.

This is a way to reach out to people,” Ms Green said. More than $250,000 was raised from all five shows in 2015 and the charity want to crack the $300,000 mark this year. “Just from Christchurch, we would like to get over the $50,000 mark,” she said. Fashion for a Cure has been running since 2012. Breast cancer is the most common cancer for women, and the third most common cancer overall. The disease affects one in nine New Zealand women over their lifetime and more than 600 women die from it every year. Christchurch’s Fashion for a Cure show will be hosted by Michelle Pickles on Thursday September 22.
