MATTHEW O'BRIEN FASHION SHOW Award-winning fashion designer Matthew O’Brien hosted his spectacular fashion show ‘The Jungle Out There’ in Chester in partnership with Clogau jewellery. The largest fashion show outside of London featured entertainment from Royal Harpist Claire Jones, X-Factor finalist Jay James, Sing Out Gospel Choir and an after party, and all proceeds were donated to Lady Taverners Cheshire and North Wales and the Countess Charity. The event welcomed over 450 guests, including television presenter Gethin Jones, Lucy Meacock, Real Housewives of Cheshire Ester amongst many other well known local faces. On the catwalk this year along with the couture models were the finalists from Matthew’s Real Women competition. Matthew launched this competition as he wanted real women to feel inspired by fashion and to feel fabulous. On the evening Matthew announced that Rebecca Hughes from Eastham on the Wirral would become the face of his brand. 92 wirrallife.com
