The glamorous event at the Cocoabean chocolate factory in Twynholm last Thursday was organised by the Clydesdale Bank in Dumfries and Galloway as part of Business Week.
It was attended by 150 local businesswomen, who enjoyed a chocolate making demonstration and a catwalk display courtesy of the Panache boutique from Castle Douglas.

The evening raised £2100 for Hospice UK, including £1050 in match funding provided by Clydesdale Bank, their charity partner.
David Hannon, head of Clydesdale Bank’s Business and Private Banking Centre in Carlisle, which organised the charity fashion show, said: “We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all who took part in the event and those who dug deep to contribute to a very worthy cause.”
