Amy Azada serves as lead stylist, and a team from Paul Brown plus other local stylists have been busy putting the wardrobe together for the show.

“It’s amazing fashions from Goodwill locations that they can purchase at ridiculously incredible prices,” says Paul Brown on what people can expect to see. “There’s good, fashionable opportunities, and also vintage treasures.

“I personally have a Sandwich Isles sports coat that I bought at Goodwill in New York for $5, 40 years ago, that I will be wearing that evening.”

A limited amount of tickets to the fashion show and VIP pre-sale are available for $20, and can be purchased online (look for the link at higoodwill.org/glam).
