Out of the attic,
onto the runway

All those historic homes that the Historic Hawaii Foundation is trying to save have closets. Some of them, really big closets. So it's kind of fitting that a fund-raising event for the organization features historic clothing.

"200 Years of Hawaii" is a fashion show featuring authentic and renovated gowns and accessories worn by famous Hawaiian women, from Queen Ka'ahumanu to Queen Liliu'okalani. It runs 2 to 5 p.m. Sunday at the Walker Estate and Gardens, 2616 Pali Highway.

The collection was put together by the late fashion historian and designer Richard Goodwin. His dresses will be modeled by a variety of Miss Hawaiis. The afternoon includes tea and garden tours.

Admission is $25. Information and reservations, call 523-2900.
