About 100 people watched as models previewed everything from glamorous to at-leisure styles during the Shades of Pink Fashion Show, a community service project for participants of Her Harvest Women’s Outreach Program, which took place on June 29th at the Salvation Army in Red Bank. The fashion show, featuring clothing from Lunch Break’s Clara’s Closet and organized by Her Harvest Women’s Outreach Program, Lunch Break, the Salvation Army of Red Bank, KYDS, and Youth Time to Shine-Prevention First, celebrated women trauma survivors.
“Having the opportunity to partner with Lunch Break and other tremendous agencies and people was an absolute dream come true. Celebrating women that have outlasted trauma was an honor,” says Pamela Major, CEO of Melia Bloom.
