The Red Dress Fashion show featured red dresses by iconic designers such as Nicole Miller (who was at the event) and Marchesa, worn by local celebrities, power brokers and heart disease survivors.
“Go Red” was the theme of the evening at the Red Dress Fashion Show to benefit the American Heart Association at the Setai Hotel in South Beach as part of Funkshion Fashion Week. Funkshion is an annual week of runway shows, events and parties showcasing both established fashion designers and emerging talents.
The Red Dress Fashion show featured red dresses by iconic designers such as Nicole Miller (who was at the event) and Marchesa, worn by local celebrities, power brokers and heart disease survivors. Local celebrities strutting down the runway included Kristina Campins from Miami Social and The Apprentice, Anchel from America’s Next Top Model Cycle 7, Miss Florida USA 2009, Anastagia Pierre and Telemundo legend María Celeste Arrarás. The show also featured a special mini-show of red swimwear by apparel giant Janzten to celebrate it’s 100th birthday. Piaget Diamonds and Motives Cosmetics by Loren Ridinger provided the jewelry and makeup so all the models were at their most beautiful and bedazzled.
Heart disease is the number one killer of women over the age of 25 – more than cancer, so this show is an important component of the American Heart Association’s campaign to “Go Red” to raise awareness and prevention of heart diesase in women. Funds raised from the show will help Go Red for Women community programs and fund research in the field of cardiology.

I’ve always loved the how great dresses look in red. I’m just going to put it out there: “Red is the new ‘green’, which was the old ‘black’.”
