A look by Delpozo on the runway at Jeffrey Fashion Cares.
High fashion hit the runway at the 23rd annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares event held recently at Phipps Plaza in Atlanta. Founded and hosted by designer Jeffrey Kalinsky, the event benefited Susan G. Komen Greater Atlanta and the Atlanta AIDS Fund. It felt like home for Kalinsky, whose Jeffrey Atlanta | New York boutique has been in Phipps for 25 years.
A silent auction was held during the pre-show cocktail party featuring luxury items from Dior, Marc Jacobs, Roger Vivier and Tiffany & Co. A live auction on the catwalk included Irene Neuwirth earrings, a Cathy Waterman pendant, a “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” luxury trip to the jeweler’s Fifth Avenue store in New York, and a “Vogue” package trip to New York during New York Fashion Week.
And then came the fashion! The runway show showcased an array of trends and high-end designers, including Dries van Noten, Celine, JW Anderson, Mira Mikati, Christian Dior, Proenza Schouler, Saint Laurent Paris, Lanvin, Mary Katranzou, Narciso Rodriguez, Loewe, Delpozo, Roland Mouret, Alexander McQueen, Junya Wantanabi, Simone Rocha, Stella McCartney, Ashish, Marc Jacobs, Givenchy and Urdem.
Since its inception, Jeffrey Fashion Cares has grown into one of the largest combined AIDS and breast cancer benefits in the country. For more information, visit jeffreyfashioncares.com.
