SOUTHERN VIEW Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi Tuesday [Edition <strong>April</strong> <strong>30</strong> datE] <strong>2019</strong> 13 5 New retailers deliver diversity and style The Hub Hornby offers an extensive selection of retail and service businesses, and the last 12 months have seen a number of new retailers join The Hub family. The fashion offering has seen especially large growth with Merric, Bras’n Things and Ziera Shoes all opening new stores at The Hub.

The Hub’s fashion stylist, Vicki McMillan creates the looks featured on the mannequins outside Michael Hill, drawing together items from different retailers in unique ways to show how items can be mixed and matched. Vicki also offers personalised styling and shopping sessions for those customers that would like some expert advice as to what fashion would work best for them. On Thursday, <strong>April</strong> 11, The Hub held its very first Fashion Forecast show. Featuring a 24-metre-long runway, the show featured upcoming autumn and winter fashions showcased from The Hub’s retailers, and modelled by friends and family to demonstrate real clothing on real people. The evening was a huge success and also featured the winners of the Proud to Be…promotion, which saw six locals receive full makeovers. The winners were: June Foster Campbell, a proud Hornby resident, who serves the community in both a professional and voluntary capacity. Described as firm but fair, she is widely known in the community as Aunty June. Matt Voice, husband and stepfather to four-year-old Maddison. Matt runs a non-profit organisation, Primortal, which provides calisthenic fitness classes at The Base in Waterloo Road. Mandy Wilson, wife and mother of four.

Glenda Harris, grandmother with full custody of her blind, autistic 12-year-old grandson. Glenda has terminal cancer, and is in constant pain, but never complains.

Sheavoynne Mouat, mother of six and mother figure to all who need it. Sheavoynne founded the netball club Revelations to support young Maori to fulfill their netball and touch dreams. Her door is always open to anyone who needs a place to stay or a shoulder to cry on.
