The annual event held at the retailer's Dallas flagship featured a fashion show by Oscar de la Renta.
’ downtown flagship, the Crystal Charity Ball’s Ten Best Dressed Women of Dallas Fashion Show and Luncheon always resembles a cocktail party.
Established in 1952 to benefit local children’s causes, the nonprofit relies on 100 well-heeled volunteer women to achieve a fundraising goal in time for its annual gala on the first Saturday in December. This year’s target is $7,093,665, and the luncheon will contribute more than $1 million, according to event chair Kim Hext.
Charlotte Jones introduced each of the women named “best dressed” and described their philanthropic roles as they took a turn on the runway escorted by a male model in a black suit. They and Lisa Cooley, who was named to the charity’s Hall of Fame for having made the list three times, all wore de la Renta.
“It’s a very different environment from New York where women really celebrate,” Kim told WWD. “I love it. It’s happier and more fun.”“We’re very happy with the way it’s being delivered, and the customer is responding positively to the new fall fashions,” he said. “We want to make sure that what we have in all the stores and online is what we know is going to sell and be the bestsellers throughout the season.
