BLUE JACKET FASHION SHOW The Story
Designer Frederick Anderson welcomed fashionistas to the annual Blue Jacket Fashion Show, which he cofounded seven years ago with marketer Laura Miller, to raise awareness about prostate cancer, especially among black men at Moonlight Studios. This always-fun show put a long list of VIPS on the runway, including Sex and the City star Mario Cantone, Don Lemon, Al Roker, chef Marcus Samuelsson, Page Six’s Carlos Greer, Alex Lundqvist, and Nigel Barker. The men all donned edgy designer blue ensembles by designers such as Thom Browne, Michael Kors, and Tommy Hilfiger. Science superstar Bill Nye said, “We think with more research, we can change the world.” Carol Alt and Fern Mallis, led the applause. The fundraiser was sponsored by Janssen Oncology, and all proceeds from the ticket sales went to the nonprofit advocacy group Zero–The End of Prostate Cancer. zerocancer.org ALEX LUNQVIST
