The Beauty of Benefit
By Chelsea Gaetani
WASHINGTON D.C. – Miss Singery held their 2nd annual fashion show“Beauty is Skin Deep” at the French Embassy on March 4th starting at 8pm, benefitting the Skin Cancer Foundation. The night was staged perfectly for such an elegant event. Amongst the crowed, talented fashion designers trickled backstage to get ready to show off their new look for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, the guests waited anxiously with cocktail in hand.
As the show started, the first to speak was Megan McConville representing Miss Singery 2011. As McConville spoke her passion for this philanthropic cause shone through every word. “Diverse people from diverse backgrounds, coming together for a common cause,” is how she described the radiant night at hand. Some of the upcoming events she mentioned included a Special Olympics sponsored by Miss Singery and a self-defense class for Women Against Domestic Violence. As the show preceded the host and news anchor, Will Thomas, FOX5, informed us that 1 in every 5 women will be diagnosed with skin cancer. Thomas lulled the crowed with such a frightening fact then all eyes focused toward the runway when the music picked up its pace.
The first look to hit the spotlight was casual yet classy. The models literally glistened while passing the men and women sitting in the front row whispering their critiques to one another. Positive feedback was written across their faces as their expressions spoke for them.
Some of the attending designers included Maggie Norris Couture, Daniella Kallmeyer, Vincent Licari and Gemma Kahng. Every designer allowed for spunk to hit the runway along with a fabulous taste of authenticity. The stylist for the show was Alexa Winner and she did an amazing job projecting the edgy aura of the show as a whole.
Miss Singery continues to execute benefits for numerous organizations with meaningful causes while adding whimsicality and glamour. For national and international charitable events, Miss Singery is raising awareness in a fashionable manner.
