The Heart Truth Red
Dress Fashion Show opened Mercedes Benz Fashion
Week for Spring 2011. Heart disease in women is
the number one killer of women and the women in
the runway show looked “killer” in their
red dresses. I was sitting in the audience thinking,
"Wow, I want to look like Suzanne Somers!!"
Celebrity participants in this
year's Red Dress Collection Fashion Show included:
The Biggest Loser's Alison Sweeney, Today
Show host Ann Curry, The Good Wife's Archie
Punjabi, reality television star Audrina Patridge,
So You Think You Can Dance's Cat Deeley,
television actress and Cover Girl makeup model Dania
Ramirez, actress and former fashion model Denise
Richards, actress and burlesque artist Dita Von
Teese, Californication's Eva Amurri, recording

& Order: SVU's Stephanie March, Three's
Company/Step by Step actress Suzanne
Somers, and Academy Award nominee Taraji P. Henson.
New York's fashion week designers
"went all out" to support the fight against
heart disease and to make the models look absolutely
smashing as they walked the runway in their red
dresses.
