Report on the Red Dress Show
So I have to give you a quick report on the show. I loved it, loved it, loved it. So much fun. I managed to snag myself a front row, center section seat and had one of the best views in the tent.
This is who walked the red runway:
Allison Janney, you know, CJ from The West Wing, wearing Donna Karan
Ana Ortiz, Ugly Betty's sister Hilda, wearing Badgley Mischka — adorable
Ashanti wearing Tracy Reese
Camryn Manheim, from The Practice, wearing Ali Rahimi
Cheryl Hines, Curb Your Enthusiasm, wearing Catherine Malandrino
Heidi Klum wearing Marc Jacobs. I am officially in love with Heidi Klum. She is stunning.
Jenna Fischer, Pam from The Office, wearing Carmen Marc Valvo
Joss Stone wearing Max Azria Atelier
Lisa Rinna wearing Michael Kors. Hers was probably my favorite dress — the fringe was amazing.
Liza Minnelli wearing a Halston Original
Maria Menounos for Marchesa
Mary Lynn Rajskub, from 24, wearing Monique Lhuillier
Molly Sims, from Las Vegas, wearing Daniel Swarovski. I also really, really loved this dress.
Rita Moreno wearing Lily Samii. She danced the entire length of the runway and was charming.
Sara Ramierez (Callie from Grey's Anatomy) wearing Angel Sanchez — and she was absolutely gorgeous.
The First Lady, Laura Bush, opened the show (and then sat right across from me, I'm not kidding about my really good seat) and she was lovely and gracious as well. To end the show, Liza Minnelli sang New York, New York and was just generally awesome while confetti fell from the top of the tent.
The show was great. The energy was fantastic — red outfits everywhere and the audience just delighted to be a part of it. The dresses were amazing. And it was especially fun because the models/actresses were waving and dancing and blowing kisses and interacting with the audience.
I had a great time and felt so lucky to be invited. I picked up The Heart Truth red dress pins for my daughters after the show. Hooray for National Wear Red Day!
