HospiceWits hosted the very first Night with the Stars Fashion Show on Human Rights Day to provide care for the terminally ill. The highly anticipated event took place on High Street in Melrose Arch shopping centre in Jozi.
SA’s top zalebs took part in the glamorous affair where fashion leant its voice to a great cause on a platform of elegance and celebration in order to make a difference to those facing the trauma of a life threatnening illness.
Says Jan Malan, Producer & Director of the show, “As a fashion show producer, this is my way of giving back to the community, to utilise my craft for the sole benefit of those suffering and in need. The HospiceWits Night of the Stars Charity Benefit is an ideal opportunity for famous South Africans to join hands with the fashion undsutry by coming together on Human Rights Day to offer much needed support.”
Says Joy Ruwodo, Marketing Manager of HospiceWits, “We are thrilled to host this event for the first time and we hope to make it an annual event on the social calendar of every celebrity, every business personality, every CEO and every fashion designer. What could be better than taking a moment to give of yourself? And to do so knowing the difference it will make to so many. We welcome all participants, all contributors and supporters to join us.”
One of the highlights of the evening was when controversial zaleb, Kuli Roberts, whopped off her high heels and skipped down the runway. It was unexpected, it was refreshing and oh-so Kuli!
