From devastation to hope: Celebrity Preloved Fashion Fundraiser Raises Funds For Hurricane Melissa Victims
We’re humbled to share the incredible success of our Celebrity Preloved Fashion Fundraiser, at The Roof Gardens, which raised funds for schools and communities devastated by Hurricane Melissa.
The initiative, sparked by a conversation with Lorraine Collins (BSc, MSc, MBACP), with the help of an incredible committee of friends and colleagues including Karen Cummings-Palmer, Susan Bender Whitfield, Shanna Bent, Dawn Mason, Celia Sears, Pippa Bennett-Warner, Yasmin Mills, Deborah Latouche, and Rachael Barrett brought together style, sustainability and generosity.
We couldn’t have achieve such success without the incredible support and generosity of fashion, beauty, music and sports industry leaders alongside inspirational talent including Sade, Naomi Campbell, Naomie Harris, Grace Wales Bonner, DIOTIMA, Anna Wintour, Tilda Swinton, Mayes C Rubeo, Veronica Webb, Vanessa Kingori, OBE, Francesca Thyssen-Bornemisza, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Manolo Blahnik, Dr. Martens plc, SERENA BUTE LONDON, Bella Freud, Giovanna Caruso Fendi, Nanushka, and Melissa Odabash MBE amongst the many, many others who also stepped up in the most meaningful way to ensure help for those in need.
A HUGE thank you to all those who came to help and shop and a very special thank you to His Excellency, Paul Gomez, The Bahamas High Commission to the United Kingdom for his powerful words and last, but certainly not least, to the wonderful Beverley Knight whose beautiful energy treated us to an impromptu live performance when she dropped off her bespoke jacket.
