Sydenham High School wound up its 40th annual fashion show with a Saturday night gala for all the alumni who had taken part over the years. The first official SHS fashion show took place in Loughborough Public School gym, because at the time, the schools were sharing premises while SHS was undergoing extensive renovations.
It was a modest affair, featuring students modelling clothes they had made in ‘Home Ec” class. Forty years later, nobody’s heard of the traditional Home Economics class, and one of the most entertaining sets highlighted 1970’s
style clothes from parents’ closets. Other highlights included wedding dresses and sudent made fashions.
