Fresh Start Women’s Foundation hosted its 18th Annual Fashion Gala on Feb. 22 at the Arizona Biltmore. The event attracted more than 650 guests who enjoyed a cocktail reception, fashion show, dinner and after-party. The full-scale, New York-style runway show featured fashions by Etro, presented by Saks Fifth Avenue.
Ann Siner, CEO of My Sister’s Closet, and her sister Tess Loo, chief fashion stylist for My Sister’s Closet, co-chaired the occasion. The Founders Award Honorees for the evening were long-time Fresh Start supporters Anne Mariucci and Kathy Munro.
The gala raised more than $1.1 million in gross revenue, which will support the programs and services of Fresh Start Women’s Foundation, whose mission is to empower women to transform their lives through engagement and education.
