Buy Design Goes Intergalactic!

If you love theme parties, dressing up, and having fun with a group of similar-minded party revelers then Buy Design is the charity event designed just for you! Now in it's 6th year, Buy Design has created a space-themed night inspired by Barbarella, er, I should say Buybarella - who you can follow on Twitter (@Buybarella) for your chance to win tickets. (If you don't know Barbarella, why not take a look back to my Design in Space post.)

Date: Saturday, April 18
Time: 8pm
Location: Distillery Historic District
Cost $75, or 6 for the price of 5
Website: buydesignforwindfall.ca

So bust out your go-go boots and minis! I can't wait - last year's studio 54 theme was incredible but this one is gonna be a bigger blast!

All proceeds are donated to Windfall, Canada's only NEW clothing and basic-needs bank.

"BUY DESIGN's galaxy-renowned live and silent auctions bring in donations that will sate fashionistas, foodies and culture lovers alike. Earthly possessions up for bid include Jenny Bird handbags, a $1000 H&M shopping spree and gift certificates to the city's best restaurants, spas, and salons. Be there for the curtained reveal and get first bid on items - from roundtrip Via Rail tickets to Montreal and autographed NHL and NFL jerseys, to one of a kind couture from Doll Factory by Damzels. Stop by the sci-fi Beauty Lab and get glam amongst beauticians in lab coats and beakers overflowing with luxury beauty products from brands such as Smashbox, Boss, Cargo and L'Oréal. Satisfy your astronomical appetite and indulge in delectable mini beef burgers, herb crusted lamb chops and sweet potato fries courtesy of Encore catering. Top off the night with BUY DESIGN's exclusive take home treasures thanks to the evening's generous sponsors."
