Colour perfect Guest speaker Mrs S Bradley gave an enjoyable talk about “A Summer Wardrobe” to mem bers of Knowle Green and Dutton WI.
Mrs Bradley had been a beauty therapist for 30 years before changing to become a colour analyst which she found fasci nating. She explained the six main colour groups that each per son fits into, depend ing on their skin and hair colour. The colours range from clear, deep, cool light and warm to soft. She spent time exam ining each members’ features to decide which group they belonged to. Some had very definite fea tures for their group especially the dark haired/dark eyed group being classed as deep.
The grey/silver haired with blue eyes were definitely cool mem bers.
On Saturday, many of the members' compe tition entries were on display at the Clitheroe Area 'WI
Mrs Bradley chose two models and demon strated how to create an attractive summer wardrobe for a cruise without having to take too many suit
cases or break the bank! She also stressed the impor tance of cosmetic jewellery and fash ionable handbags to update outfits, which gave each one a com
pletely different look. I t certainly gave
everyone some great ideas. Mrs Kate Ack-
royd expressed thanks. A competi tion for a coat hanger was won by Mrs 'Vera Hilton and Mrs Joyce Dewhurst. In August a trip to Alston Hall is planned.
