‘The Art of Fashion’ theme of benefit fall fashion show

Proceeds will benefit the Garnett Library.

2023 October 30 by University Communications

Officials with The Kloz Klozet invite everyone to their “The Art of Fashion” fashion show and luncheon from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 16, at the West Plains Country Club, 402 Country Club Dr., in West Plains.

The event is sponsored by the Friends of the Garnett Library and benefits the Garnett Library at Missouri State University-West Plains (MSU-WP).

It will feature the latest styles in dresses, slacks, accessories, shoes, fashion jewelry, travel accessories and handbags from The Kloz Klozet, owned by Florence James.

Doors for the Nov. 16 fashion show will open at 11:30 a.m. for those who wish to come early to socialize and participate in a silent and live auction. Admission is $30, with proceeds going to the library.

More than $50,000 raised

Over the past 20 years, the semiannual fashion show events have raised more than $51,000, said Rebekah McKinney, director of library services at the Garnett Library.

“Everyone at the Garnett Library is grateful to the Friends, attendees and the fashion show business owners for all they do to enrich the library and help our students be successful,” McKinney said.

Seating is limited, so those planning to attend must make reservations early. Reservations are a commitment, and the Friends appreciate your donation even if you are unable to attend, organizers said.

Seating will be open, but tables will be available on a first come, first served basis for those who would like to bring their friends or co-workers to the event, organizers said.
