Couture for a Cure

May 7th was the eve of the America's Polo Cup weekend. The Couture for a Cure event raised awareness and support for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Presented by to the Nth Degree and America's Polo Cup, Couture for a Cure is a fashion show highlighting the work of local designers including Aidah Fontenot, Tsyndyma, Wendy Jarmol Jewelry, and Evelyn Brooks Jewelry. The venue was The Peacock Grand Cafe. Paul Wharton was the Master of Ceremonies and Deejay Neekola spun some tunes to help keep the crowd party on into the night.
