HOW TO GET THERE We travelled there by car on the M42 Junction 6 and parked relatively close by it cost £7 and there where 5 bays and as we where quite late ...
...years they have separated the Clothes Show into separate rooms calling them The yellow room, the purple room, the blue room and the pink room they now just have one large open area and have everything together in different zones. Which I don't really think works because my sister went for specific hair, make-up and perfume things but as every thing had now been thrown together you couldn't really organise yourself to go to a specific room to get ...

Review of Clothes Show

...coach to go to the clothes show live in Birmingham NEC on Tuesday 7th of December, do you want to go?' I wasn't quite sure but I gave it a go!! I paid £26.50 for the day and bus fares there and back. Which I didn’t think was too bad! We left school at 9:15 am and got there around 12:00 after stopping for a refreshment break half way there! With aching legs we walked down to the massive NEC. We were told we would meet at 2:00pm to go to the catwalk. ...
...lost!!) this was the actual clothes bit!! There were all different clothes items on show and a mini catwalk at the end! I didn’t find this one too interesting, so I moved on!!! Then there was THE PURPLE ZONE which was selling fashion, trendy and jeans wear. I didn’t actually buy any clothing! They had makes like Punkyfish, playboy, withit and MTV hits was there doing some karaoke!! Last came THE YELLOW ZONE and for some strange reason there were ...

Review of Clothes Show

The Clothes show live NEC Birmingham I am in Year nine at my school and hoping to take textiles for my GCSEs. The year 10’s and11s were going on a trip to go to the Birmingham Clothes show live but there were spaces left for year nines interested in textiles and fashion, and my friends and me were invited to go. I wasn’t quite sure whether I wanted to go or not but I decided to go because all my friends were going. We had to pay £26:50 for the bus ...

After the blue zone was the Purple zone, which sold even more trendy clothes, with even more, makes like Withit and MTV hits were doing karaoke! Last of all was the yellow zone, where there were lots of dance mats with people boogieing and there was a place where you got strapped ...

Review of Clothes Show

I visted the Clothes Show exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham yesterday. I have to say I was rather dissapointed. I have been previously (2004) and it was absolutely brilliant. This year however the standards of stalls was appauling! The fashion show (10:00 show) was brilliant. Lots of scantally clad men and women "dancers" as they were called and plenty to keep you entertained. If only a bit short. Caprice made an appearance showing off her underwear ...
...with many selling the same clothes under different labels. There were however some bargains to be had especially the goodie bag on the Gemma Kidd make-up stand (£10 for £40 worth of stuff - can't say better than that!). A few other goodie bags were available around the show so these were worth £2 (Eve Magazine + Ruby & Millie Mascara), £5 or £10 for what you got. The shoes were extremely disapointing as there were not many "normal" shoes. Many starnge ...

...into the auidence and got the crowds roaring over all, i dont think that i would be too bothered if i didnt manage to get tickets for the next clothes show. i would love to see more of the clothes show and less of the tacky stalls. :) ...

Review of Clothes Show

The clothes show at the NEC, Birmingham was an event i thought i would enjoy being into the latest fashions. However, after attending the event on the day before it closed i was very dissapointed. Family members had been the year before and couldn't praise it enough. There wasn't much stock left from the stalls and the catwalks were not as good as we expected. This is only my opinion however it holds the view of many others that attended that day. ...
