Jaguar Land Rover Showroom dazzles during Charity Fashion Show

Can there be a better venue for a high-end charity fashion show than our historic landmark showroom on 901 Van Ness? On August 27, "The Collection" Fashion Show event that was co-hosted by San Francisco Bay Area Fashion Network completely transformed our auto showroom into a lively fashion temple. Local designers Daniel Sudar, Acta Non Verba and Joseph Domingo showed off the best of their collections in three well-choreographed runway shows that had the attending crowd of fashionistas cheering. Our Bentley Continental GT and Jaguar XJ models served as a fitting backdrop to the runway, and a Range Rover brightened up the wardrobe and make-up area.

And it all was for a good cause as the shows' proceeds benefit Dress for Success San Francisco, a non-profit that provides women in need with professional attire and helps with their job searches.

Here's a great backstage video about the Collection Charity Fashion Show:

The Fashion Show came with all the bells and whistles, including red carpet and all!
