Beth El Sisterhood Fashion Show gives to the community

Posted

Beth El Sisterhood’s annual fashion show fundraiser turned out to be a success for both Beth El and its charitable causes. 

The fashion show was held in early November at the Beaches Synagogue in Ponte Vedra Beach. 

“We had a record crowd in attendance,” Fashion Show Chair Sherill Herzfeld said. “It was a packed house at Beth El and everyone enjoyed themselves.”

The show featured fashions by Athleta of the St. Johns Town Center, Carla Shoes & Accessories of Ponte Vedra Beach and custom beaded cuffs by Erica Mesquit. 

 “We collected donations in conjunction with Jewish Family & Community Services (JFCS) for a large number of Holocaust survivors in Jacksonville living under the poverty level,” Herzfeld said. 

During the event, Colleen Lloyd Rodriguez from JFCS discussed the organization and how the donations will help enrich lives in the community. 

“It was astounding to hear how poorly they live and what the JFCS does to help them daily” Herzfeld said.

Modeling the outfits were Beth El Sisterhood members. They had a “glam squad” to get them ready for the show that included Susan Birch with her Dior makeup team and Sara Marvin with her Lux Hair Studio team. A prosecco bar with berries and finger foods by Jessica Day Healthy Gourmet was also served.
