An upcoming, charity fashion show in Centreville is called Runway for Another Day for one simple reason.
"All the money we raise from the runway event will hopefully help a child live to see another day," said event organizer Alyson Pollard.
All proceeds go to Band of Parents A-Line prom dresses, whose children have a cancer called neuroblastoma, and will help fund research and treatments for this currently incurable disease. For 1998 Robinson Secondary grad Pollard, who now lives in Little Rocky Run, it’s also a way to help her brother, Nick Franca, 21, who’s been battling it since 2005.
Besides that, she added, the fashion show promises to be exciting and entertaining. "It’s going to be a truly magical afternoon, perfect for a mother-daughter day out," said Pollard. "It’s full of fashion and fun, and the icing on the cake is that it’s for such a great cause."
Runway for Another Day is slated for Sunday cheap prom dresses, April 3 prom dresses 2011, from 2-6 p.m., at the Chantilly Country Club, 14901 Braddock Road. There, women and teens will have a chance to buy everything from prom gowns to semi-formal and everyday dresses at bargain prices. Tickets are $25, presale only cheap grad dresses, and space is limited; call Pollard at 703-946-3416.
The runway show will feature some 35 of the top evening gowns and prom dresses "because they’re the most entertaining to look at," said Pollard. "Then they’ll be sold, silent-auction style."
Overall, though, about 150 dresses will be on display and available for purchase. They’re divided evenly between formal wear and all-occasion dresses. Several classic, little black dresses will sell for $30, and everyday dresses and sundresses for teens and adults will range from $25-$30; these will be on clothing racks throughout the room.
"Ann’s Boutique in Burke Centre donated six, brand-new, designer dresses that average $300 apiece," said Pollard. "They’re beautiful dresses and will be on mannequins and available for $100. Ann’s was amazing to do this for us. They were very helpful, willing and supportive of the event."
"Several sororities at GMU also donated dresses because they’re always having spring and fall formals," said Pollard. "And we’d be thrilled if people want to make further donations above the asking price. Everything’s tax-deductible because Band of Parents is a nonprofit."
The models will be GMU and Robinson Secondary students, plus Franca’s girlfriend cheap prom dresses, Kelly Embley. "We’ll even have some girls modeling who are current survivors of neuroblastoma," said Pollard. Corsages for the survivors will be provided by A Flower Blooms in Clifton, and The Hair Garage of Clifton is doing the models’ hair.
Pollard was raised in the Town of Clifton and, as a student at Robinson, she helped plan her school’s prom, so she’s excited to be involved with prom gowns again. "If any gowns are left over, I’ll try to offer them to local high-school girls who may otherwise not be able to afford them," she said.
Besides the fashion show, the day’s fun will also include surprise guests, possibly a sports figure and a musician, refreshments and a raffle of goodie baskets containing items such as spa packages prom dresses, prom-night limo deals, plus hair and makeup packages.
Forget Me Not Cakes of Gainesville is providing cupcakes, and four baskets of gift items will be raffled off. Three baskets will be prom-themed and will contain goodies such as Vera Bradley bags, plus gift certificates for limousine rides plus size prom dresse 2011, spa treatments, hair appointments and makeup. The fourth basket will feature high-end electronics.
In addition cheap short prom dresses, vendors will be on hand with a dazzling array of hot fashion trends and accessories. Clothing, jewelry and makeup vendors will display and sell their wares and will then donate a portion of their profits from that day’s sales or orders to Band of Parents.
Some limousine companies will offer information about their services and will bring their limousines to the event for people to tour. And Bonefish Grill in Greenbriar has provided gift cards for the "swag bags" each attendee will receive.
Sponsoring Runway for Another Day are Village TimeSaver of Clifton, CleanOffice Inc. of Chantilly grad dresses, Ann’s Boutique of Burke, and Deb Gorham of Long & Foster, Realtors. More sponsors are needed, though.
Pollard’s sister Megan is helping design and coordinate the event. The whole thing is dedicated to Chantilly’s Rachel D’Andrea, who succumbed to neuroblastoma in January at age 3, and they want to raise $10,000 for the cause, in her name. Those unable to attend, but wishing to donate a dress or money to the cause should phone Alyson Pollard.
