Be Good, Be Beautiful: The Fashion Show


The words ‘Fairtrade Fashion’ often conjure up images of hemp sacks and tie die, but the world of Fairtrade fashion and beauty is far from that. With beautiful jewellery, on trend fashion and fantastic choice the Fairtrade community is bursting with vibrant produce. ‘Be Good, Be Beautiful’ events aim to promote this. This year Sheffield’s Blue Shed will be the home, for two nights only, of ‘Be Good, Be Beautiful: The Fashion Show’ a night of local and national fair-trade goods. Hosted by Sophie Mei and Ruth Amos this will be an event not to be missed, with partners such as People Tree, Ethics Girls, Bishopstons Trading, The Body Shop, The Co-operative Society and The English Rose Bakery. Live music from Hayley Toothill and other live acts. All ages are welcome and all proceeds raised will go to Habitat for Humanity. Habitat for Humanity works around the world with volunteers from all backgrounds, races and religions to build homes together with families in need.
