Complete in every detail, the show gave a preview of 1950 gowns. All models were Pontiac girls who carried themselves as professionals while they walked across the decorated stage.

The feature showing of the evening was by Miss Audrey Burns of Portage du Fort, displaying the latest in bridal wear and a beautifully gowned 1950 bride represented by Miss Laura Hobbs of Bryson. Little Connie Towell of Bryson carried the bouquet. All gowns were courtesy of Doran’s Ladies Wear of Pembroke.
