RE-view: Project Red Dress was a Runway Hit!

by Eddie Walker

Hats off to Eduardo Khawam.  He Directed the 4^th Annual Project Red Dress Fashion Show on Feb. 3, 2012 at the Fairmount Olympic Hotel in Seattle, and it was truly a stellar event.  Produced by Monir Zandghoreishi. There was music by Conductor Geoffrey Larson with the Seattle Metropolitan Chamber Orchestra.  Jim Dever hosted the event, and he was charming as ever.  And there was some fashion creations there to die for, but I’ll get to that in a minute.

Project Red Dress is Seattle’s annual fashion event that’s held to raise money for the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women movement.  The designers are local student who are given $200 for red fabric and 16 hours to produce a red dress.  The winner is awarded a scholarship.

The top five dresses were all well made and sellable.  However, they were all dresses I’ve seen before.  But when you think they only had 16 hours to produce these high quality garment from scratch, then I have to give them snaps.  What impressed me was dresses that were different, and me me feel a way I’ve never felt before.
