‘dos to top everything from local
designer-wear to fabulously Baroque
costumes from the Vancouver
Opera.

If that's not enough, local musi-
cians Barney Beniall, Jim Byrnes,
Paul Janz, and members of
Loverboy and the Vancouver
Symphony, and the casts from
Forever Plaid and Ain't
Misbehaving will entertain guests
throughout the evening.

“Woodstock and Oscars together
in one night,” is how Holt, a North
Shore resident, describes the festivi-
ties. “Everyone has given their time
to make this the ultimate fashion-
music experience.”

Also included in the $50 ticket
price are hors d’oeuvre, an oyster
bar, iced vodka, cappuccino and
delectable desserts.

If that’s not enough, every penny
from ticket sales will be donated to
the Oak Tree Clinic Women and
Children’s HIV Centre at B.C.’s
Children’s Hospital.

“Think of it as giving $50 directly
to women and children with Aids,”
says Holt. Phone Ginny at Avant
Garde to reserve a ticket: 688-1986.
