Chantry Library hosted dozens of stallholders who offered pre-loved clothes, new jewellery and cosmetics on Wednesday.
Thank you to all the volunteers for taking over the catwalk, and presenting second-hand clothes.
The event aimed to celebrate International Women’s Day and promote sustainable clothing while also raising funds for Suffolk Libraries.
Vicki Mann, executive library manager for Chantry Library, said: “Our fashion show and clothing sale was very successful, and everyone enjoyed themselves.
“The event was very well supported with around 100 people taking part and we also raised £55 to help support Suffolk Libraries.
“The feedback was amazing and there was a buzz and a very good atmosphere throughout.
“My colleague Sarah Fuller who works in the library used the event to raise awareness about the importance of sustainability and how recycling clothes can help the environment.

“We would like to thank The Friends of Chantry Library, County Councillor Nadia Cenci, Dyers Diner, The Suffolk Libraries arts team, the Ipswich Reggae choir and all the volunteers and models who supported us.”
