What's all this got to do with elephants you may be asking?  The fashion show is a benefit for the Asian Conservatory Project (AEACP) and will feature the Elephant Collection, a series of garments made from hemp and other earth-friendly fabrics that have been painted by elephants in Thailand.As if wearable elephant art wasn't enough, the fashion show also features celebrity guest model Nicole Cammack, the beautiful young star from the ninth season of the hugely popular co-habitational UK reality series, Big Brother.  Also from across the pond, London dj, DJ Andy, who now resides in Birmingham (Alabama, not England) will provide the beats for the runway show. Rounding out the truly international feel of the event, My Glorious, a three piece rock band from Vienna, Austria will be perform.

Tickets for the event are $25 for VIP,which includes a private cocktail reception at 7:30pm as well as runway seating. General admission tickets are a suggested $5 donation to AEACP. The fashion show begins at 8:00pm. Be sure to check back tomorrow for a wrap-up of the event, as well as the first installment of Clicked!, a recurring photo gallery of who's who and where they've been Clicked!

If you can't make it to tonight's event, you'll have one more chance to catch these great clothes on the runway before they hit the stores, when Ivey On Main in historic downtown Franklin, TN hosts a similar event tomorrow night.

    They can also purchase original elephant paintings at ExoticWorldGifts.com and money goes directly to help prevent the Asian elephant from becoming extinct. More info available in the FAQ.
