review

Charles Street had their very own Project Catwalk as part of their week long Winter Pride celebrations. With a fabulous line-up of gorgeous models and collections from local shops and businesses, it was one to watch this season!

In addition to the runway show, presided over by the lovely Gabbi, we were treated to stalls featuring local fashion houses; Circus, Clonezone, Prowler and Spruce.

Monies raised went to Pride in Brighton & Hove as part of this initiative to raise funds for putting on the summer event. Thanks go to the Charles Street staff, Gabbi and all the participants for giving up their time - also to DJ Hollie, who provided the soundtrack and donated her fees to Pride.

Just gorgeous, sweety and definitely the new black in Brighton's Winter Pride collection...!

about Clonezone

There's something rather reassuring about Clonezone. It might be that they've been around for a long time, have a lot of experience and knowledge in their field, or perhaps it's just their honesty that comes through. There's no hiding what they're all about underneath any veneer of 'chic-come-highstreet' or 'lifestyle' respectability. They sell what they sell and have become very much part of, and highly supportive of, the LGBT community in the cities in which they are located.

about Prowler

In the heart of the gay village, Prowler Brighton is bright, airy and inviting... not at all what you might expect from a big gay superstore!
