Fashion Takes Flight – February 25th

While I am sorry to miss this as I will be attending the Denyce Graves performance at the Kennedy Center and after concert reception, I wanted to make sure folks knew about this upcoming fashion fundraiser since it’s for a great cause and because Kate Michael is the Mistress of Ceremonies.  

"FASHION TAKES FLIGHT," a fashion show to benefit Luke’s Wings will be held on Wednesday, February 25, 2009 at L2 Lounge.

Washington fashion takes flight as we salute our armed services and raise money to bring a little piece of home to the wounded while recuperating at military medical centers.

Local celebrities, including Kate Marie Grinold- "Ms. DC," Paul Wharton, Tony Hudgins, Katherine Kennedy, Angie Goff, Redskins and former Redskins Cheerleaders and members of the armed services, will walk the runway in a one of a kind fashion event showcasing the spring and summer collections of Washington designers and boutiques.

Admission: $25 tax deductible donation if pre-purchased, or $35 if purchased at the door. The evening’s events will include a silent auction, raffle, and a designer sale. Hors d’oeuvres and L2 drink specials will be served.
