Angela Moore Fashion Show This Week

Fashion and tennis lovers will spend a stylish morning sipping bubbly at the Alex and Ani Ladies Day  featuring the Angela Moore Fashion Show and Champagne Breakfast.  This will be the 14 this signature fundraising event and weekend kick-off for the 2013 Hall of Fame Tennis Championships has taken place.  Angela Moore returns to center stage along with ATP World Tour tennis stars, TV and fashion personalities and Newport celebrities at the International Tennis Hall of Fame as they celebrate summer style.

The event will be held on Thursday, July 11, 2013 from 9:00am – 11:00am on the historic Horseshoe Piazza.  Proceeds from the event will go towards maintaining and enhancing the International  Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum.  This event has raised over $270,000 over the past 13 years. 

This year the theme of the show is “Summer Sensations – Newport Style”, featuring Alex and Ani’s new collection, plus looks from Angela Moore, Manuel Canovas, Just Madras, Echo, Dizzy Lizzie, Jack Rogers, and other surprise designers.  Guests will enjoy watching the most stylish people (on and off the runway) as Angela Moore presents the epitome of our City-by-the-Sea’s chic style in a fabulous display of elegant fashions from daytime to date time, plus new tennis looks from Fila. 

Rhode Island locals will recognize the newly crowned Miss Rhode Island 2013 Jessica Marfeo,  Miss Rhode Island 2009 Ashley (Bickford) Karger, NBC 10 sports anchor Frank Carpano, plus other well-known Newporters.  

The fashion show is one of the most anticipated events held during Tennis Week and has perennially sold out, so make reservations early.  Tickets are $90 and include a seated fashion show, champagne breakfast, full day of viewing courtside tennis and a $15 Angela Moore gift certificate.  To purchase tickets, call Marguerite Marano at (401)324-4057 or visit www.tennisfame.com/AMFS
