The Heart Truth fashion show, with its parade of celebrities in red frocks, is the industry's Valentine to the public. During the official commencement of New York Fashion Week on Friday morning Tim Gunn of "Project Runway" has made this comment.
Sources have thrown more light on this particular news. Celebrities namely Patricia Arquette, Hilary Duff, Katie Couric, and Olympic gymnast Nastia Liukin were amongst the "models," who put on dresses by the likes of Nicole Miller, Carmen Marc Valvo, Donna Karan and Max Azria. They did so in order to help raise consciousness about heart disease. It has become a tradition to open Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week's fall-collection previews with this joint, charitable effort.
Jane Kaczmarek, who wore a strapless, fan-top gown by Rafael Cennamo was a first-time cat walker. While briefing the reporters of a famous news agency she said that her biggest concern was tripping.
She did fine, though, collecting cheers and applause, and she scored a coup for her charity Clothes Off Our Back. It has organized auction of clothes worn by celebrities to raise money for children's causes.
Former "Wonder Woman" Lynda Carter, in a one-shoulder Caroline Herrera gown, was another crowd puller so as Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling of "Beverly Hills, 90210". Garth was in flowing Badgley Mischka gown with peek-a-boo white beaded straps. Tori Spelling wore a flirty strapless dress by Betsey Johnson with a black-sash waist and tiers of pleats.
Olympic swimmer Amanda Beard wore a bikini-top gown by Cushnie et Ochs, and skater Kristi Yamaguchi was in a deep-red satin gown by Vera Wang with rosettes on one shoulder.
The youngest star of TV's "Ugly Betty," Mark Indelicato was present in the occasion. According to him, all the celebrities have effectively drawn attention to heart disease. However he was not quite convinced to switch his wardrobe to red.
"I have a stripe on my sweater and I'm wearing my Red Dress pin, but I'm not really partial to red," added Mark. |
