St Ann's ChurchSt Ann's ChurchThere will also be free music thanks to local singer JJ Rosa, who is putting on a free gig at St Ann’s Church in St Ann’s Square on the same evening.

As renowned fashion designer Karl Lagerfield once said: “Fashion and music are the same, because music express its period too.”

Sadly Karl won’t be private jetting over to Manchester to join us for the event but let’s face it, he’d never be able to see the beauty of the church with those black shades glued to his face anyway.

The 24-year-old singer-songwriter from Heaton Moor, with her distinctive vintage style, is tipped to be the next big thing offering an eclectic blend of sumptuous soul, psychedelic rock and pop-orientated hip-hop. Together with long-term band mates, Marky Lewis (bass) and Jimmy Wood (drums), JJ Rosa strides confidently between genres.
