Cinderella makeovers benefit homeless youths

Thirty women over the age of 50 will be transformed into “Cinderella at the ball” and photographed at a fundraising event Saturday at The Underground in Shelton.

The “Cinderella of a Certain Age” event raises money for the nonprofit Shelton Youth Connection and the homeless youth program. Tickets are $150.

The news release states “Women over 50 tend to be overlooked, thought of grandmotherly; old, soft in the middle with crinkled smiles and wrinkled hands; forgetting that they were young. It is time that gentrification come to an end where beauty is concerned.”

Due to pandemic mandates, the event is limited to 30 people. Tickets are structured by time slots, with a maximum of three women at a time being made over and photographed. Wine and cider will be served, and gluten free and vegan hors d’oeuvres are available.
