Goodwill celebrates thrift with inclusive second-hand fashion show

Goodwill Industries says thrift is thriving in Alberta, and some of the company employees showcased their thrifted styles Saturday in Old Strathcona. The Goodwill on Whyte Avenue held its second annual second-hand fashion show in the afternoon, in celebration of the art of thrift. "We're very proud to have it this year, because last year was such a huge success and this fashion show is so unique," said Doug Roxburgh, of Goodwill. Roxburgh said it was a bit challenging finding models for the first fashion show, but that wasn't the case Saturday. One participant said fashion has to be cool, so that's what he was bringing for his first experience modeling.
