The Friends of Dorothy Guild
Announces Spring on the Runway Fashion Show Rave III
BIGGER – BETTER – BEYOND IMAGINATION
May 23, 2012
IRVINE, CA – The Friends of Dorothy Guild benefiting AIDS Services Foundation OC holds its annual spring fashion show – this year on May 23 starting at 6 p.m. The runway is bigger and longer, more fashions than ever before, plus the silent and live auctions with beyond-your-imagination items.
Spring on the Runway Fashion Show Rave III will be held at Susie and Kevin Coleman’s warehouse at 3130 Airway Ave. in Costa Mesa – just steps from the John Wayne Airport runway. This year’s show includes live commentary by The Friends of Dorothy Guild Founder and Chairwoman Barbara Venezia and OC Register editor John Fabris – welcoming fashions by Margaritaville Apparel for men, Dark 8 Custom Leather, West Coast Leather of San Francisco, Rod Alan custom made menswear, Tulum Island Boutique and fantasy gowns by Clay Sadler.
The show runs the gamut from evening wear, sportswear, resort wear, golf wear, workout gear and the signature Dorothy finale – men’s underwear, provided by Freedom Reigns.
Venezia said, “This year truly is going to top every fashion show The Friends of Dorothy Guild has ever done. Our fashion raves are always a sellout with a waiting list. It is truly, a not-to-be-missed event.”
To date, the Dorothys have raised more than $600,000 for ASF, We couldn’t have accomplished this without the generosity of our partnering vendors and members, “said Venezia.
The stunning models are from Otto Models, hair and make-up by MAC and Studio 4 Salon. Catering provided by Original Tommy’s, Sundried Tomato, The Meat House, Nothing Bundt Cakes, Diva Cupcakes and Barefoot Wine and Bubbly. Special thanks to Susie and Kevin Coleman for the Rave venue.
Tickets are just $65 for non-members and $55 per person for guild members. (You can become a member, purchase tickets, become a sponsor or contribute to the silent auction by visiting friendsofdorothy.org)
Special thanks go to The Crean Foundation, Center Club, and Classic Party Rentals.
The money raised goes to support ASF programs such as food bank, housing, counseling, HIV testing and education. For over 25 years ASF has provided services throughout our community to those affected and infected by HIV and AIDS.
