How many lives did your dress saved?


Today's post I dedicate to my late grandma and grandpa, my dad a survivor and a very brave and fabulous women I know who won one battle and is right now fighting a second one against cancer.


This is to support a great cause, very close to my heart, where fashion is used as an inspiration and a motivation to help raise funds needed to find a cure for cancer and help save lives by selling 22 unique little black dresses by world most renowned fashion designers like: Giorgio Armani Prive, Donna Karan, Vivienne Westwood, Alberta Ferretti, Azzaro, Diane von Furnsternberg, Fendi, Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier, Valentino and many others.

For me, the sparkling Swarowski crystals on each of the dresses represent the sparks of hope and determination to fight in each person, while classic, elegant and universal status of the little black dress warns that cancer can happen to each of us in any period of our lives. 
     This is why, every new research started, every single cent donated, every Swarowski book and each of 22 Swarowski crystal embellished designer dresses sold on this auction counts!
Use the oportunity to see these fabulous dresses exibited at Phillips de Pury.


100% of the proceeds are going to the American Cancer Society and la Ligue nationale contre le cancer in France.
