On September 15th I had the honor of Co-Chairing the 56th Annual Gold Coast Fashion Awards Show benefitting the Anne and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. It was such a wonderful day – complete with a room full of donors supporting the kids and families served by this wonderful hospital – and AMAZING fashion. My Co-Chair extraordinaire is Kim Friesen of Chicago. In addition to the Fashion, we had Kimberly McDonald perform the Campaign song with a children's choir – they were INCREDIBLE!
We presented the 2010 Award to Bibhu Mohapatra. He is SO charming and talented, with a long bright future ahead – it was a pleasure to present his award. And the 2011 winner was Fabiola Arias! A delightful woman whose pieces are each like a work of art. Makes sense since she is also a fine artist. And the head pieces! WOW!
