What: Animal Kingdom Fashion Show
Who: The Phoenix Society lady's club has made arrangements and chosen the charity for the auction; House of Lytton provided the attire for the fashion show
Cost: Tickets have a nominal cost but attendees are also expected to bid at the auction
Where: Hogsmeade Assembly Room
Why: Fashion
When: 9 June
The evening is divided into three components: silent auction where guests can mingle and enjoy light refreshments, a fashion show where they are expected to be seated in the audience, and a return to the silent auction following. All fashion show pieces are themed to evoke different animals, muggle and magical, and guests are encouraged to dress to theme as well. During both auction portions, guests can purchase elaborate face-painting to transform them into an animal of their choice. With contouring and vibrant color, you're guaranteed to be totally unrecognizable. Unbeknownst to the guests, the artists may also be layering in some magic to help inspire guests to get "in character" by adopting some mannerisms of their target animal. A woman with cat makeup may find herself absent-mindedly licking the back of her hand to smooth down her hair; a rabbit-faced woman will have an especially twitchy nose; etc. These magical mannerisms linger longer than the makeup, and may recur for the next week or so before fading entirely.
The event is scheduled for the mid-afternoon, early enough that you can (and are highly encouraged to) attend it prior to any other evening plans.
