Fashion and beauty showcase is a hit with shoppers

A five day fashion and beauty spectacular held at The Rock in Bury proved a huge hit with shoppers getting ready for summer.

Style Your Summer, now in its third year at the centre, included a pamper zone for visitors to indulge in free makeovers, a style clinic offering beauty advice and fashion shows featuring the summer’s hottest trends.

Visitors enjoyed free hair styling, manicures and makeup and style experts were on hand to guide shoppers on what colours and fabrics suited their body type and skin tone and which summer looks they should be going for.

The week was topped off with a series of fashion shows where models showcased the latest trends from stores at the centre including River Island, Topshop, Topman, Primark, Simply Be, Debenhams, Burton, Dorothy Perkins and more.

There was also entertainment from the Ruff Diamonds street dance crew and dancers from The Zone in Bury.

Arnold Wilcox-Wood, centre director of The Rock, said: “Our Style Your Summer showcase has become a firm fixture in our events calendar and once again proved to be a huge success. Not only did the event showcase the latest summer styles available here at The Rock it was also an opportunity for our visitors to indulge in free pamper treatments and style advice.

“Our fashion shows once again drew in the crowds and I’m pleased to say over the course of the week our generous shoppers also helped us to raise more than £250 for our partner charity, The Joshua Wilson Brain Tumour Charity.”
