NY Fashion Week Fall 2012 kicked off with a fun and charitable event on Wednesday, February 8th. I had the privilege to attend the Red Dress Collection Fashion Show at the Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC. This year featured 17 celebrities walking the runway in fashions created by some of America’s top designers. During The Heart Truth’s 10 years of partnership with the fashion industry, nearly 80 designers and 162 celebrities have participated in the annual Red Dress Collection Fashion Shows.
