Croydon Fashion Festival got started today (23rd April) as locals came together in the name of fashion for a ‘flashmob’ event.

To celebrate the return of the popular free series of events, organisers Croydon Town Centre BID used social networking media to invite Croydonians to come down to the town centre and ‘strike a pose’ together.

At midday in North End, Croydon these fashionable folks gathered en masse to pause for 2 minutes in a pose, creating a “real life” frozen photograph.

The group then dispersed seamlessly from the area, having made living art all in the name of the Croydon Fashion Festival.

Croydon Fashion Festival is a free series of events which will run over the weekend at various locations across the London Borough of Croydon.
