'This is
Sussex' reports that, “The town's most beautiful woman was given a mod-style
makeover to promote a scooter club's 30th anniversary.
Nicole
Aitken-Smith, who was recently crowned Miss Crawley 2013, was invited to
Central Sussex College for a makeover and fashion shoot.
The
17-year-old, of Blackheath in Pound Hill, was dressed in 1960s attire by the
college's fashion students after being given a makeover by its beauty students.
Photography
students then took pictures of her posing with a vintage 1959 Lambretta, which
had been restored.
The Last
Great Act of Defiance Scooter Club's 30th Anniversary reunion is being held at
Goff's Park Social Club on November 9.
There
will be live music, with mod gods The Scene taking centre stage and Distant Echo
in support. DJs English Karl, Gary Crickmore, Carl Skalistic and Mark Bailey
will spin some vinyl on the night as well.
The club
was born out of the great 80s mod revival and has remained true to its mod
roots. Sporting Breton caps and belts, the 200 or so that made up a 'Defiance'
pack were a regular sight at all-dayers, all-nighters and of course the
obligatory weekenders.
Now the
club is celebrating 30 years and wants former members to get back in touch.
Gerard
James, one of the founding members, said: "It would be great to hear from
some of the old 'uns – better if they want to come along."
He added
that it won't be quite an all-nighter, finishing at 2am, saying: "Well, we
have been going 30 years."
Tickets
for the reunion, which starts at 7.30pm, are £10 in advance and can be bought
from the social club, or £12 on the door.”
