On Wednesday, November 18th Wear Else hosted an event for our PWG ladies at their West 4th Avenue store. Thanks to Zahra, Jennifer and Crystal for their efforts in making this 'Get Ready for the Holiday Party' event so special.

PWG Members took holiday attire home for free and also received complimentary hair styles, provided by Suki's and complimentary makeover's, provided by Blanche Macdonald's Make-Up program students . Wear Else also provided pizza and beverages while Giovanni Amenta from Pink & Grey gave PWG members an engaging presentation on the topic of dressing for your body type.
