Strength in Style Fashion Show

A fusion of fashion and compassion

Three charities.

300 guests.

One ballroom.

Strength in Style 2024 was epic, magical, emotional… a truly memorable evening!

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us at The 2024 Strength in Style Show at the Assembly Rooms in Bath. It was wonderful to see so many people there and to hear such positive feedback from the event. The Strength in Style team, including all our models and volunteers, did an incredible job bringing together such a fabulous show.

Through everyone who played their part, we were able to:

  • Profile the important work of these three charities – Children’s Hospice South West, Dorothy House Hospice and We Get It

  • Empower the members of all three charity communities who absolutely slayed as our catwalk models

  • Showcase five independent fashion retailers in Bath
    Blue, Boho, Grace & Mabel, Gaff and Portman

  • Share some amazing designs created by the next generation of fashions designers, studying at Hayesfield School in Bath.

  • Highlight the importance of sustainable fashion styled from our local charity shops

Thanks to the generous support of everyone involved, we have been able to maximise the amount being donated to each of the three charities.

We hope you enjoy these memories of the magical evening and remember – you can donate and support our incredible community to live well with and beyond cancer.

We look forward to seeing you at the next Strength in Style show!

“The show left me smiling for the rest of the week. The positive energy in the room was infectious and seeing the pride and beauty of the models on the cat walk was so special. Watching them change from apprehensive participants to confident models as the love in the room engulfed them was quite emotional. The collaboration of children’s services and adult services, families and friends is an aspiration we all have and this event achieved. Well done teams!”

“Taking part in the Strength in Style Fashion Show was the absolute highlight of my year. I am living with incurable cancer and We Get It have given me opportunities like this to really embrace living. I was nervous to take part and it was completely out of my comfort zone but strutting my stuff down that catwalk gave me so much confidence and made me feel like I really could do anything. It was great to share the experience with friends from the cancer community and meet the other models too, we had so much fun. It meant so much to me that my family were also part of this amazing experience. I hope they will always remember that evening, I know I will.”

“Taking part in Strength in Style was a definite first for me and way out of my comfort zone. I decided to take part to support the amazing collaboration between the 3 charities involved and my fellow We Get It volunteers and models. I found it daunting at first but I relaxed into it and felt at ease with all the other models. The day itself was a huge success and the adrenalin and excitement carried us all through. We all felt extremely proud and lucky to be in such an event.”
