WCA 2016: Her Universe panels, SDCC Fashion Show Updates at this years WonderCon
#WCA2016:@HerUniverse panels,@Comic_Con Fashion Show Updates at this years @WonderCon
D’you know what I love about this +Her Universe press release? Makes it sound like they’re holding a Fashion Show at WonderCon (they’re not), or that the release will be telling you when and where the Fashion Show will be held at San Diego +Comic-Con International (it doesn’t – the packed-out 2015 event was held in the Seaport Ballroom of the +Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego; no clue if it’s heading back there again in July but, considering the capacity required for this popular event, it’s more than likely).
Still, lots to be excited about if you’re heading to WonderCon and you’re fashionably inclined…
