Frocking For A Cause

Frocking for a Cause is an exhibition displaying the frock collection of Erin and Lauren Ritchie which they have worn as part of Frocktober over the last three years. Frocktober is an initiative to raise awareness of Ovarian Cancer and the Ovarian Cancer Research Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF).
