Women Rock at the Little Black Dress Party

Nearly 300 men and women came together to pro­mote women’s health and raise money for local char­i­ties at the first annual Lit­tle Black Dress Party on May 22, at the Emer­ald Coast Con­fer­ence Cen­ter. The event included a Fash­ion Show by Dillard’s, live and silent auc­tions, a live band, great food and a fab­u­lous time!

The White-​​Wilson Cen­ter for Women’s Imag­ing part­nered with Emer­ald Ladies Jour­nal and other local orga­ni­za­tions to host the event. Over $15,000 was raised for The Shel­ter House, Oppor­tu­nity Inc., and the local chap­ters of The Amer­i­can Can­cer Soci­ety and The Amer­i­can Heart Association.

Each char­ity was pre­sented a check for $3,700 at the Lit­tle Black Dress Wrap-​​Up Recep­tion on June 30, 2010 at Two Trees Restau­rant in Fort Wal­ton Beach.

If you didn’t make it to the event this year, don’t hang your LBD (lit­tle black dress) up quite yet. Plans are already in the works for another event in 2011.
