Women’s Show On Its Way to Wow

Posted by The Editorial Desk / Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

Top o’ the mornin’ to ya, shoppers! While you’re busy figuring out where to grab that Guinness tonight, I thought I’d also help you plan your first weekend in April. After all, as I mentioned in recent posts, you will not want to miss the upcoming Women’s Show of Northern Virginia when it takes over the Dulles Expo Center Friday, April 3, through Sunday, April 5. The popular Women’s Show Series has been around since 1982, and, trust me, the team behind the series knows what it takes to impress us ladies.

At the first-ever Women’s Show for our area, attention will be paid to all of our top interests, from fashion to food, fitness, health, business, education, travel, leisure and home decor, under one roof. (Did I mention free parking?!) You can expect everything from trendy fashion shows — showcasing a full range of looks from casual to business and formal, including couture clothing for dogs and eco-friendly fashions for families looking to start or keep living green — to creative cooking demonstrations, amazing makeovers, professional styling tips, celebrity guest appearances and superb shopping!

To give you an even better idea of what’s in store, here is the list of exhibitors.

Also make sure to check out the stage schedules, including the Northern Virginia Magazine Fashion & Entertainment Stage schedule, here.  While each and every act promises to be sensational, we hope you’ll pay extra special attention to the fabulous shows we’re sponsoring featuring: Gossip on 23rd, Pam Shops 4 You, Unique Paws, PR at Partners, Salon Bleu, Wish Special Events and “House & Home author Kathleen McCleary. Personally, I’m also looking forward to an appearance by Jason Earles of Hannah Montana (my nieces LOVE that show!) as well as fashion shows featuring formal wear designed by Johnathan Kayne of Project Runway.

As for tickets, they’re currently selling in advance for only $7 at Harris Teeter with a VIC card; and they’ll still be just $9 at the door, $5 for kids age 6 through 12, free for kids under age 6  accompanied by an adult. Plus, shoppers, you can win three FREE tickets by nominating someone in our Ultimate Female Role Model Contest. Just do so by Thursday!
