Los Angeles County Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®,
Smashbox and Diane von Furstenberg Present the Eighth Annual
Fashion for the Cure® Inspirational Runway Show Fundraiser
The Los Angeles County Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® will hold our eighth annual Fashion for the Cure® fundraiser at Smashbox Studios in West Hollywood on Thursday, September 24, 2009. Kicking off breast cancer awareness month, the Komen Los Angeles County Affiliate is featuring the Diane von Furstenberg Cruise/Pre-Spring Collection 2009/2010 in a high-energy runway show.
Inspiration is the theme of this year’s runway show. Fashion for the Cure® seeks to inspire and encourage LA’s fashion, entertainment and medical community to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
As breast cancer knows no boundary - be it age, gender, socio-economic status or geographic location - the runway models for the event will be comprised of women who have strong ties to breast cancer. This year’s lineup will include high-profile breast cancer advocates, local breast cancer survivors and professional models who have been touched by breast cancer.
In addition to the runway show, additional event festivities include a silent auction and a brief ceremony honoring Los Angeles County-based researchers who received national Susan G. Komen for the Cure® grants.
