Getting dressed up in colorful dresses and bright bows is what the 5 and 7-year-old Dale sisters, Sydney and Cassidy, look forward to every year at the Eastdale Mall Spring Fashion Show. That and getting to prance down the runway with smiles and confidence.
Cassidy used to be shy in front of crowds, but not anymore, said her mother, Debi Dale.
"They look forward to it every year and watch the older ones do it," said Debi. "They want to be in the teen group when they grow up. I think it's a good thing for them to aspire to. They work hard out there and it's good for the little ones to have somebody to look up to and it builds their confidence. ... This has really opened her (Cassidy) up."
Cassidy has been part of the show since the age four and has fun doing it with her younger sister.
"They let them walk out together and do their own routine," said Chris Dale, the girls' father. "They have been practicing at home and blow air kisses to each other. They're just all smiles when they're on stage."

The fashion show is an annual event at the mall and has been a staple there for 30 years. The show is much more than simply showing off fashion, although there is much of that and models feature the latest spring trends that are available at clothing stores within the mall.
The fashion show is an annual event at the mall and has been a staple there for 30 years. The show is much more than simply showing off fashion, although there is much of that and models feature the latest spring trends that are available at clothing stores within the mall.
The show featured choreographed dance routines to popular pop songs, children from area schools and local media hosts.
A crowd of about 300 gathered to watch the show and shoppers stopped browsing to take a look.
"It was a huge turnout! We're so excited," said Suzanna Wasserman, marketing director for Eastdale. "The goal is to promote Eastdale Mall and show the great spring trends that are going on this year. All the clothes are from retailers here and it's just a great community event, bringing in the children. They're the best. They just get so excited on stage."
The models came out as groups and singles showing off professional attire, athletic wear, children and teen casual fashion, suits and prom gowns. Some of the styles this season include bright colors and patterns, animal prints, free-flowing fabrics, floral dresses and skirts and bright neon athletic spandex.
