Fashion show features products available at Fair Trade Marketplace

Music pulsed and models strutted and twirled in front of more than 40 people at the first Fair Trade Advocates’ Fashion Show last night. The fashion show was part of Fair Trade Week at K-State.

The models were all volunteers from Fair Trade Advocates, Student Governing Association and other student organizations. The clothing, bags and jewelry models demonstrated were loaned from Fair Trade Certified companies like Urban Haat, Marketplace India, Global Mamas and AWAZ. Everything featured at the show will be available at the Fair Trade Market in the K-State Student Union beginning today at 10 a.m. Read more
