Last week, our client Northbrook Court held its second-annual Fashion Forward event to kick off the holiday season in style and benefit two local charities. Charity representatives modeled some of this season’s top holiday looks from Northbrook Court retailers, and with a twist on a traditional fashion show, attendees bid on the looks as they went down the runway. Local media were in attendance to cover this unique event, and proceeds from ticket and auction sales topped last year’s donations. All proceeds from Fashion Forward benefited local charity FORCE: Facing Our Risk of Cancer Empowered – the only non-profit dedicated to improving the lives of individuals and families affected by hereditary breast and ovarian cancer – and Bears Care, the charitable beneficiary of the Chicago Bears that is committed to improving the lives of those in the Chicagoland community through support of targeted programs in the areas of education youth athletics and health awareness.
