Recycle the Runway

Description

What is Recycle the Runway?

Recycle the Runway is a cocktail hour and a unique fashion show where local designers are challenged to create a “runway ready" fashion ensemble out of a bag of “unsuitable" garments. “Unsuitable" garments are items that have been generously donated to Dress for Success Corpus Christi but are not workplace appropriate for the women we serve. This is the first year for Recycle the Runway and we are expecting a big turnout! It will be a fabulous evening with appetizers, wine and beer, a great silent auction, and, of course, the highlight of the evening, a memorable fashion show filled with outstanding works of creativity!

What is Dress for Success Corpus Christi?
Dress for Success Corpus Christi is an affiliate of an International non‐profit that empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. Currently in our fourth year, Dress for Success Corpus Christi has suited and served over 500 women in our community. Women receiving services range in age from 18 – 70 with over 55% of those clients being single mothers, raising (on average) 2‐3 children. The services Dress for Success Corpus Christi provides are important to this community and your support is greatly needed so that more women can be served.
