THE city’s Metquarter turned on the style with a fashion show for the Liverpool Unites charity – despite an injury-time loss from EFC player Phil Jagielka.
The injured Blues defender had hoped to hobble down the catwalk on crutches at the shopping centre’s annual event last night.
But the 26-year-old England international was forced to pull out because of his knee injury.
Jennina O’Neill, marketing manger of Metquarter, said: “We were liaising with Phil up until that last minute, and he was really excited about being involved in the fashion show, especially as the event was backing the Liverpool Unites charity.”
Guests were greeted by stilt walkers and enjoyed a catwalk show, music, cocktail classes and wine tasting. The fashion show featured the Metquarter’s latest styles including coats, lingerie, red carpet glamour and children’s fashion.
Victor Anichebe stepped in to do the prize draw for Liverpool Unites.
