HATS, handbags, shoes and scarves will be among the fabulous array of hand-made items tempting shoppers at the second annual Passion for Fashion event in Worcester's Guildhall.

Organisers have invited a select group of individual designers and crafts people to take a stand at the event, which they hope is becoming the fashion highlight of the year in Worcester.

Shoppers will be able to buy everything a fashion fan could wish for - from beautiful handbags and unique clothing to fine jewellery and fabulous hats. Beauty products will also be on sale to add to the shopping list.

Twenty three stallholders will be taking part in the event on Friday, October, 21, which is raising money for St Richard's Hospice.

Many of those selling items are small locally-based firms with a reputation for quality, individual items.

Event organiser, St Richard's community fund-raiser Alison Weston, said shoppers will have a wonderful time.

"If you are looking for an extra-special Christmas gift for someone or just treating yourself, you will be sure to find something lovely at Passion for Fashion," she added.

"Entry is free, so why not pop in and enjoy a rare treat of all these fantastic items under one roof."

Passion for Fashion will be open to the public between 10.30am and 7pm.

Entrance is free, but donations to the hospice - which is raising the final £350,000 towards its Building Beds Together campaign - are welcomed.
