Love on Canvas and jinny Present Tribal Soldier Fashion Show 2010
Love on Canvas and jinny will present new inspiration for fall 2010 with a benefit fashion show themed "Tribal Soldier", to be held on:
Saturday, October 9, 2010
The Athletic Club of Columbus
Ballroom Lounge
136 East Broad Street
Columbus, OH 43215
The evening's hostess is nonprofit leader and the ever-fashionable Toshia Safford, President and CEO of The Center for Healthy Families. The fashion show is slated to begin at 7:00 pm and runs through 9:00 pm and will feature heart-healthy hors d'oeuvres courtesy of The Athletic Club of Columbus. Open bar. Tickets will run $55 for general seating and $80 for VIP seating. Creative black tie dress code preferred.
All proceeds will benefit Keeping Tabs On Your Heart (KTOYH), a non-profit organization developed by Daphne Bell after the untimely death of her husband, former NFL standout, Todd Anthony Bell, to a sudden heart attack. Bell is a spokesperson for The OSU Richard M. Ross Heart Hospital and The Columbus American Heart Association. Daphne has teamed up with experts from Ross and American Heart Association to help create awareness about heart disease in the underserved and under informed demographic. KTOYH's program Project Red Flag is committed to promoting the prevention and management of hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, and heart disease among minority communities.
The Tribal Soldier fashion show is the 16th to be produced by Love on Canvas, a local fashion event organization helmed by Mikah Dwayne Marshall Brown and Ludie Senatus; a 25-year veteran of the fashion industry and current president of Marshall Brown Presents talent booking agency, and director of Marshall Brown Represents (MBR) with a near decade of runway and fashion experience, respectively.
Brown and Jin H Fillinger, owner of jinny boutique in the Short North, had a serendipitous meeting of the minds during a local fashion photo shoot, where the idea for this runway show was born. Says Brown, "It's a new day! We're ready to take this fashion event to another level and shake this city!"
"I look forward to rocking the fashion scene here in Columbus," says Senatus. "This will be an unforgettable event." Adds Fillinger, "We're looking forward to producing a beautiful show for an urgent, local cause."
Event sponsors include: Vino 100, who will host a VIP French wine tasting at jinny boutique immediately following the event. The fashion show will also debut accessories designed exclusively jinny by local designer Honey Rose & K. Alexanders Jewelers and Image Optical, both in the Short North, will unleash their new fine jewelry and optical collections for fall on the runway. Special thanks to Due Amici for their support of our event.
