Last Saturday, Place Carnot vibrated to the rhythm of the Folle journée mamertine, an event organized by the Union commerciale et artisanale (UCA) of Mamers and Saosnois, which was a huge success.
Under the presidency of Stanislas Richard, the flea market brought together a large audience, attracted by the many activities offered throughout this exceptional day. In the heart of the city center, traders, artisans and exhibitors set up their stalls for a day punctuated by a garage sale, a fashion show and a memorable closing concert.
The fashion show was well received
The highlight of the event was undoubtedly the fashion show, a highlight that boosted the local economy. Fifteen traders and artisans participated in the clothing, accessories, hair and makeup of 22 models for a day, including eight children.
explains Fabienne Morel, secretary of the UCA. This parade highlights the diversity of what Mamers has to offer.
Among the enthusiastic spectators, Marie-Thérèse and Odette, faithful to the meeting for the third time, do not hide their pleasure: This show is awesome! What’s great is that they chose models of all ages and body types. It gives people confidence, and it shows that fashion is for everyone.
The day ended in style with a concert by the rock group Electrick Karma at Place Carnot.
