“Make a change, ‘cuz life is great!” This was the simple message behind a recent fashion show, the Runway to Conquer Cancer. Fashionistas, artists and humanitarians gathered at the always-trendy Pop Opera to take in eco-urban looks from Bahmbu, H&M and accessories from Bang-On. Models stomped the runway while local DJ’s laid down tracks to an enthusiastic, jam-packed crowd. With 100 percent of proceeds going to the BC Cancer Foundation, it was a proud moment to witness the young community supporting such a great cause. I was reminded of one simple lesson that night: charity will never go out of style.
