BERKELEY HEIGHTS, NJ - Governor Livingston High School held its annual fashion show Wednesday night. The show featured 22 seniors and four teacher models and helped raise money for the senior class.

The money raised for the event is split 50/50; half of it goes towards the senior class to help reduce the cost of prom while the other half goes towards Project Graduation in June.

The event format has changed in recent years by adding in special raffle prizes, all donated by Governor Livingston parents. The amount of money raised towards the fashion show has also continually increased throughout the years. Last year, the school raised more than $1,600.

Each basket donated has a value of about $100. The big prize of the night was donated by the Ennis family of Berkeley Heights - a $500 gift card to put towards a party bus for one lucky senior to take his or her friends to the prom.

The men's apparel was courtesy of Adams Fine Clothing of New Providence, dresses were from Lord and Taylor, and Skin Deep provided hair and makeup services.
