Check out Fashion for Philanthropy on College Gloss, an online magazine written by and for college women featuring fashion, food, and fun!

Fashion For Philanthropy is thrilled to announce that award winning designer Cynthia Rowley has decided to participate in our auction. Cynthia has donated a private party for the winner and 50 friends at her Bleecker Street store. Not only will the party goers receive champagne and sweets but also a generous discount on all apparel and accessories. 

The highlight of the package is that Cynthia Rowley herself will make a personal appearance at the party. From my personal experience of meeting Ms. Rowley, I can attest to her down-to-earth, friendly, Mid-Western charm that will make the winner of this package a very lucky person!

As with all of the items being auctioned off,  proceeds will benefit The Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Metro New York. Be sure to come to our Spring fashion show on April 1st to participate in the auction and maybe you will be the lucky winner of the Cynthia Rowley party!

The Fashion for Philanthropy's show is quickly approaching and we are excited to announce that Hollywood Fashion Tape will be featured in our fabulous gift bags! They have generously donated 300 samples from their Keep Your Clothes On collection.

Their fashion tape can be used to eliminate blouse gaps, hide bra straps, anchor shoe straps, close wrap styles, secure revealing necklines, fix hems fast, and hold up strapless tops.

I LOVE their products! I always use Hollywood Fashion Tape to secure my strapless party dresses and fix stubborn sleeves on my U-neck tops. It’s an essential accessory!

They have plenty of other great products that you can check out on their website. Thank goodness for Hollywood Fashion Tape! Saving us from fashion disasters everyday!
