Photo Gallery: Day of the Diva

BY BRANDY TEMPLETON

The third annual Day of the Diva featured plenty of food, fun, and flair.

About 700 people came out from surrounding states, including South Carolina, attended the event Saturday night at the Statesville Civic Center.

Families and friends came to see all the latest fashion and hair trends, check out different vendors, watch dance performances, hear live music, and sample the soulful flavors of the South. Hair specialists, barbers, fashion designers, and makeup artists all came together to put on a huge fashion show showcasing children and adults.
