Attendees at the Catwalk Time Machine event in Belleville, Ont. experienced an evening of fashion through the decades. The fundraising event, hosted by Royal LePage ProAlliance, brought in local celebrities and radio personalities to model 100 years of fashion during an interactive live auction at the Empire Theatre. Musical guests and celebrity impersonators (Marilyn Monroe, Elvis and Marlene Dietrich) kept the crowd enthused.

The event raised $20,633 for the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation, which will fund the nearly completed second stage housing project at Three Oaks. It also operates an emergency shelter and provides other services for women and children fleeing domestic violence in the Quinte area.
