Lunch and Fashion Show Flair Served at Lake District Hotel

Ullswater (I-Newswire) September 28, 2011 - The event was organized in conjunction with Hilary Cookson from the renowned dress shop Maureen Cookson at Whalley in Lancashire and Lancashire magazine. Whilst there were a number of ladies from Lancashire and beyond, there were also tables of local ladies from Cockermouth, Patterdale and Penrith.

The fashion show was presented by Hilary Cookson who owns the fashion house. She entertained guests during the fashion show by recanted humorous tales of fashion faux pas and highlighting the new range of clothing for the autumn which this year, included a mix of practical and glamorous outfits for a range of ages and sizes.

General Manager of the Inn on the Lake part of the Lake District Hotels Ltd group, Gary Wilson said “This is the third year our hotel group has worked with Maureen Cookson – and it is the second year here at the Inn on the Lake - it was good to see new faces from outside Lake District experience what we have to offer. The Victorian gazebo made a wonderful backdrop for pictures so we hope the magazine will show what we have to offer in its full glory.”

With such a stunning backdrop and setting, it isn't hard to understand why the Inn on the Lake has been choosen for the second year running to host this event.

One table of guests included members of the Workington NSPCC committee, who took time out of their busy fundraising year to enjoy a ladies day. Kath Palmer, one of the committee members said “It was a stunning early autumn drive and the location was absolutely lovely. Hilary Cookson was fun to listen to and the clothing range had something for everyone.”

Head Chef Frazer Soutar was congratulated on his menu by many of the guests who enjoyed the delicious Crab and Lobster Tian starter followed by local lamb. But the star of the menu was the Iced Raspberry and Elderberry Parfait with Mascapone Ice-cream that stole the show.
