Fashion Event Supports Westport Country Playhouse

Westport Country Playhouse and Doncaster, a woman’s apparel collection, will team up to celebrate their mutual 80th anniversaries with a “Sample Sale Extravaganza,” on Tuesday, June 29, 6 to 9 pm and Wednesday, June 30 from 10 am to 8 pm in the Playhouse’s Smilow Lounge on the mezzanine level.

More than 600 samples of the current Doncaster spring/summer collection will be on sale at 40 to 50 percent off retail. Ten percent of the proceeds will benefit the Playhouse. Admission is free on Wednesday.

Tuesday’s opening night trunk show will feature first access to the sample sale selections, light appetizers provided by The Epicurean Caterers, wines selected by local wine expert Sandra Muller and door prizes. Admission on Tuesday is $20. For reservations, call the Playhouse box office at 203-227-4177.

Designed by Patricia Clyne, formerly design director for Oscar de la Renta, the Doncaster line is available in sizes 2 to 24, including petites and women’s sizes, and includes apparel and accessories for business, casual and special occasions. Doncaster style consultants will be available to assist in making selections. The Doncaster apparel collection is only available through special trunk shows such as the Playhouse events or by private appointments.
