Save the Dates: Great Fashion Events

My favorite time of the year is just around the corner – fall! With that, so are the fashion shows! Here are some upcoming shows you do not want to miss. Every show is tied to a charity so why not kill two birds with one stone – a great night out with your girls while supporting a local charity!

Product Runway
What: 18 leading interior designers, architects, and students will flaunt their creativity by sending couture garments crafted from a diverse range of interior materials and finishes down the runway. Innovative teams from regional firms will design and construct their creations using everything from carpet to lighting – as they compete for prizes and bragging rights!

Fashion Faux Pas to Fashion Fabulous!
What: The Ruby Room invited talented local fashion designers such as MAC Designs, Tiffany Miller and Sabrina Couture to work their magic with Ruby Room gowns that weren't asked to the prom. The designers will make them the belles of the ball and you'll have the chance to take home a one-of-a-kind gown! You will also have the chance to bid on two round trip JetBlue tickets, a relaxing stay at the Inn at Langley, a SilverLake Wine Frenzy and much much more! Last year they exceeded their fundraising goals and with your help they'll do it again this year.
