Fashion fights for a cure

The fight against cancer took to the fashion catwalk on Jan. 20.

The third annual Warriors Against Cancer Introducing The Rainbows was held at Roosevelt’s in New Haven. The event was organized by Nyomie Greco, a cancer survivor herself.

The rooms at the local eatery were filled to the brim with guests, designers, models, makeup and hair teams, and vendors of various fashion dimensions.

On the runway, there was a rainbow of ages, genders, and fashion merchandise – including everything from accessories to t-shirts to full blown outfits and gowns.

For the fashionably astute, the following designers participated in the charity event:

Kia’s Kollection
