As in Hullabaloo! My friend, and Project Runway Alum, Valerie Mayen is just weeks away from her second Hullabaloo Fashion Show and I was able to take a sneak peek at what she has in store last week. It’s going to be another show filled with local, handmade fashion, food, drinks, dancing and more.

The always lovely Valerie giving us a sneak peek. We’re lucky to have her in Cleveland – let’s show her our support!
What’s in store for this year besides an awesome fashion show?
-Win a piece of your own Yellowcake by bidding on the garments and accessories from the actual collection
-Purchase exclusive Hullabaloo merchandise, handmade Yellowcake totes and much more
-Bid on everything you see on the runway and at the venue – from the shoes, to the accessories to the furniture
-Snag an original Hullabaloo 2013 collection sketch
-Be the first to purchase a piece from the second batch of the highly anticipated Yellowcake Mens line, Beefcake! Limited stock will be available for purchase.
-A post-show dance party (get it CLE!)
-Capture the night with a memento pic from the YC photobooth
What sets this year’s fashion show apart though is a cause near and dear to Valerie’s heart. Just this past year, she lost one of her closest friends, whom she was a nanny for, to cancer. Her story will be told throughout the collection in 7 chapters. The theme of “Companion” will run throughout each chapter and tell her story of hope, love, life and healing. Some proceeds from the event will go to PMP Cancer Research Foundation.
The show details:
Friday, Nov. 8th
Screw Factory, Lakewood
Doors open at 7pm with the show beginning at 8pm. Dance the night away until 1am.
General admission tickets are only $25 ($30 at the door), plus there is special early bird pricing options for the first three rows.
And guess what? I have two general admission tickets to put into your hot little hands. A winner will be selected at random on Sunday, October 20th at midnight. Here’s what ya gotta do though:
