Versace, Valentino, Lagerfeld Support St Jude Design Cares Runway Hosted By Phillip Bloch
As some of you know, I've been working overtime trying to rev up my Beauty and Fashion section. I took on about 12 interns and we are all going insane trying to keep up with the events making sure INO readers get the latest sneak peeks and event coverage. So much work - but so much fun! One of this week's functions was with St. Jude's Hospital. Design Cares presented ?Kaleidoscope of Dreams,? a fashion event and runway show of evening gowns by internationally renowned designers, including: Adrienne Landau, Carlos Alberto, Carolina Herrera, Catherine Malandrino, Chado Ralph Rucci, Diane von Furstenberg, John Galliano, Maggie Norris Couture, Marc Jacobs Collection, Neil Bieff, Matthew Williamson, Michael Kors, Nicole Miller, Vera Wang, Versace, and Yigal Azrouël. Can you IMAGINE? All on one runway! All runway gowns were donated from the designers to be auctioned off at the event and online to benefit St. Jude, one of the world?s premier pediatric cancer research centers. Nolcha donated their services in the backstage production. This is the organization that offered me the invite, so a big thanks to them. Cameras weren't allowed backstage so all credit goes to Aracelis Batista. Lindsay Price, Christian Siriano, Phillip Bloch and Veronica Webb all donated their time and effort to make the evening simply spectacular.
