Local design duo Charles & Ron host star-studded fashion show against B’Kara’s St Helen’s Basilica
The designers showcased their Fall/Winter collection at the show, with ticket sales in aid of the Malta Community Chest Fund.
The parvis of Birkirkara’s majestic St Helen’s Basilica served as the backdrop of something a little out of the ordinary this weekend, as local design duo Charles & Ron chose the historic spot to showcase their latest Fall/Winter collection, aptly titled, Palazzo.
Models from Models M and Supernova Model Management strutted down the runway in the latest designs, which had social media ablaze with words of praise and encouragement for the much-loved local brand.
Fashion and beauty bloggers, local personalities and Instagram stars filled the front rows, with the likes of Tamara Webb, Sarah Zerafa, Martina Caruana and Moira Delia among those that took to Facebook and Instagram to share the evening’s showcase, along with their own fantastic C&R outfits.
The show, which was supported by Inglot Malta and the Malta Tourism Authority, showcased Charles & Ron’s latest Palazzo collection, with pieces that featured the designers’ trademark style and a nod to Malta-specific symbols and imagery.
Personal favourites included a knitted church scene, as well as fabric prints featuring imagery from Naxxar’s stunning Palazzo Parisio – pieces which local fashionistas will certainly be coveting once they hit stores!
