Glenwood Village brings splash of colour to mark spring season

Glenwood Village is celebrating the change in season with a spring-themed family day comprising a morning market, a fashion show, live music and various tenant promotions on Saturday, September 27.

ROLLING out the red carpet this weekend, model boss Roberta Alessandri will host a fashion show at 11:00, with bespoke garments for young women sourced from fashion houses in the Glenwood Village centre.

The Fifth 031, a collective of local designers, all of whom make limited edition smart casual, special occasion and evening ensembles, as well as other retailers, will be on offer.

MC will be Glenwood’s Janine de Jesus, owner of the Grand White Mansion, who was Mrs KZN 2024, and this year is the second Princess Mrs Umhlanga and Mrs Umhlanga Princess of Purpose.

The organisers revealed, “There will be a morning market on the upper level, offering Glenwood entrepreneurs an opportunity to showcase their wares and skills, offering sweet treats, books and CDs, pre-loved clothing, treasures and collectables, beadwork, belts, soaps and décor items.”

Durban’s own Gary McKenzie will be singing spring tunes and making visitors aware of activities and promotions taking place throughout the centre.

“Increasingly we understand the need to nurture a sense of neighbourhood in places where we gather,” said Glenwood Village’s Steve King. “And what better occasion to celebrate our shared community, than the beginning of spring!” he said.

Many of the shops will be offering spring specials and promotions. Entry is free. For more information, contact 031 201 0137 (o/h).
