What: Welcome To The Jungle Fashion Show
Who: Ophelia Devine is promoting it; it's a ticketed event so most likely attendees are UC folk or MC people who wanted to make a point to be there. Also, since it's ticketed guests most likely actually wanted to come or were dragged by someone who did, not just 'another event to fill out the week's calendar' sort of thing.
Where: Hogsmeade Ballroom
Why: To introduce a new designer onto the English fashion scene.
When: 18 May 1888
Whilst on her honeymoon, Ophelia took an interest in some foreign fashion designer and is working with said designer to bring one of their clothing lines to the British Isles. The dresses are all inspired by various members of the animal kingdom, and in order to properly set the mood guests will be choosing an animal mask upon arrival to wear throughout the evening. Unbeknownst to the English attendees, in order to really set the mood the masks have been enchanted to gradually bestow one stereotypical characteristic of the animal in question upon the wearer (for instance: a man with a bull mask might find his temper rising quickly, someone with a pig face might be continuously drawn to the concessions table, etc). The magical effects are gradually enough that the wearers themselves shouldn't pick up on them, though others might.
The evening begins with a runway fashion show, then guests will be set loose to drink and mingle while the runway is cleared away. The models and designers will then go wander through the crowd and make small talk with the aim of encouraging people to place bids on the dresses displayed in the evening. Winners of the auction will not only receive a custom-tailored dress from the runway, but the peace of mind of knowing that for the 1888 season they have exclusive rights to that design as the dress won't be available in stores until the following year.
