It was a day of fun and fashion for the ladies, and some gentlemen, of Temple Beth Israel.

Temple members and friends gathered in the Michael’s On East ballroom Feb. 5 for the Temple Beth Israel Women’s annual fashion show. This year’s female models wore fashions from Evelyn & Arthur and the male models wore looks from Martin Freeman Clothing.

Before the models took to the runway, guests enjoyed lunch, dessert and perusing the raffle items.
