When August rolls around the excitement for JFC gets real! You can view last year’s post and outfit + details here. I usually wait til the last minute to figure out what I’m going to wear, but this year I’m ON-IT and already know. Full event details are below and a limited number of tickets are available for purchase on their website. Last year’s event raised nearly $625,000 for the organizations, and in its history, Jeffrey Fashion Cares has grown into one of the largest combined AIDS and breast cancer benefits in the country.
Atlanta’s most philanthropic and fashionable affair… Jeffrey Fashion Cares
Celebrating 27 stylish years on Monday, Aug. 26, 2019 at 7 pm, the event will once again be held at Phipps Plaza benefitting Susan G. Komen Greater Atlanta, the Atlanta AIDS Fund (AAF) and the Medical University of South Carolina.
What is always an unforgettable evening, Jeffrey Fashion Cares will kick off with a cocktail reception and dynamic silent auction followed by a high-energy live auction.
The evening’s pièce de résistance, a runway show featuring Kalinsky’s style selections from high-end designers, once again promises to dazzle with looks from Celine, Christian Dior, Givenchy, Dries Van Noten, Sacai, Saint Laurent Paris, Balenciaga, Valentino, Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik.
The annual event, which has become a mainstay on Atlanta’s social circuit, is founded by acclaimed retailer and arbiter of style, Jeffrey Kalinsky, who recently expanded his Atlanta store in Phipps Plaza and is now offering both men’s and women’s clothing, shoes, accessories and jewelry.
New this year, Marsha Archer, President of M-Squared Public Relations, joins veteran co-chairs Lila Hertz and Louise Sams to continue Kalinksy’s mission to raise as much funds and awareness for the event’s beneficiaries as possible.
