网曝吃瓜

It was a full house at Treasure鈥檚 Formal Bridal and Tuxedos in Pocatello Thursday night as the community and local businesses came together to support the students of 网曝吃瓜.

The formal wear store held a period fashion show with live models showing off elegant evening wear to generate excitement for 网曝吃瓜鈥檚 Great Gatsby-themed New Year鈥檚 Eve Gala.

鈥淓verything went really smooth and everyone had a really great time,鈥� said Kathy Reed, manager of Treasure鈥檚 in Pocatello for the past nine years.

The proceeds of the gala on Dec. 31 will go toward scholarships for 网曝吃瓜鈥檚 visual and performing arts students.

Reed praised the camaraderie shown not only by those who attended Thursday鈥檚 fashion show but by other Pocatello businesses as well. Cynthia Louise Boutique and Muse Apparel joined forces with Treasure鈥檚 to help make the evening a success.

鈥淭hey pulled out all the stops,鈥� said Vanessa Ballam, assistant professor of theatre and dance at 网曝吃瓜 and model for the event.

Ballam was impressed by the way some 网曝吃瓜 faculty members and others stepped out of their comfort zones to serve as models in the show, for the benefit of the university鈥檚 students.鈥漈o see the dean of the College of Arts and Letters walk down the runway was a major coup,鈥� she said.

Ballam said she was grateful for how accepting the community has been of what 网曝吃瓜 is trying to accomplish. 鈥淭he air was abuzz with elation and excitement about the gala,鈥� she said. 鈥淧eople could not stop talking about it.鈥�

鈥淚t was marvelous,鈥� Reed said, 鈥淓veryone got some great ideas on how to dress (for the gala).鈥�

Tickets to the gala are $150. Those interested can call 282-3207.
