An Autumn Glamour Fashion Show was held on Wednesday 18th September at Greenore Golf Club.

Autumn was provided by the weather, Glamour by the models, and Fashion by two local outlets, Unique Boutique, Carlingford, and Rosie's Closet, Newry.
This year, for the first time, outfits for the fashion-conscious man were also included courtesy of Tony McDonnell Menswear, Dundalk, and were displayed by a lonely looking male model.
Hats, for ladies only, were provided by Elite Hats & Accessories of Warrenpoint, and side stalls offered a range of services from aerial photography to beauty-aids.
The Golf Club was packed with would-be fashionistas from the age of two upwards. Fashions on display covered outfits for every occasion, from weddings to race-meetings, and all possibilities in between.
So if you see a smartly-dressed woman anywhere on your travels between Cooley and Newry, chances are that she picked up a few tips, if not an entire ensemble, at the fashion show. And if you see a fashionably-dressed man - well, you know where he's coming from.
The show was part of the 40th anniversary celebrations of Samaritans in this area and was organised to raise much-needed funds for the Dundalk and Newry branch, which is located at 19 St Coleman's Park, Newry.
