Ballymena Means Fashion

Ballymena retailers come together to show off town

With a spring in their step, models Alison Clarke and Leanne McDowell showcase a selection of the gorgeous fashion from local retailers Marmalade Boutique and Camerons, a few of the retailers that are taking part in the ‘Ballymena Means Fashion’ event which is taking place throughout the town centre on Saturday 8th April 2017.

SHOPPERS bound for Ballymena on Saturday 8th April are in for a real treat as an exciting day of fabulous fashion has been planned across a number of key town centre venues.

The local retailers and managers of eateries have lots of great offers on as part of a fantastic Ballymena Means Fashion event, which will be hosted by town traders from the Ballymena Business Improvement District (BID).

The dedicated day of fashion will include numerous exciting offers in the town’s popular independent boutiques such as 31 at Greenvale Street, Marmalade and Primrose, a fashion show at Fairhill Shopping Centre, discounts and spot prizes in McKillens Shoe Shop, as well as fashionista cocktails in the Front Page Bar and an afternoon tea with a fashionable twist in the Adair Arms Hotel.

In addition, Camerons, The Tower Centre, Wallace’s, Bluebird, Peacocks, David Bellingham Menswear, Ultimate in Fashion and Outdoor Adventure will also be offering fashion tips and great offers throughout the day for the whole family.

Ballymena BID manager Alison Moore commented; “Ballymena Means Fashion is gearing up to be a very special event.  The town has so much to offer in the way of fabulous fashion through its various range of independent retailers and high street brands, which really do cater for everyone.

“The fashion event is a great way to involve as many retailers and businesses as possible and will be a fun day out for those who want to see what’s in store in the local shops for the coming season as well as supporting your local town.  Ballymena is certainly becoming a fashion hot spot and the day promises to be filled with events and offers that should appeal to all ages.”
