BEHIND THE SCENES : Formally Pooled Resources

If a man changes from Speedos to tuxedos, is he a Renaissance man or an extremist? Maybe he’s just a well-turned water polo player.

Members of USC men’s water polo team modeled menswear at a fashion show last week at the Hyatt Regency in Irvine to benefit the Sophisticates’ Assessment and Treatment Services Center in Santa Ana.

Tuxedos for the H2O hunks were provided by Gingiss Formalwear. Other clothes--from casual Reyn Spooner island shirts to Hugo Boss suits--came from Garys & Co. in Newport Beach.

The wardrobe for the women in the show was supplied by 341 Bayside in Newport Beach, and the outfits for the children came from the Gosling in Newport Beach. Stuart Moore in Newport Beach provided the jewels.
