The current economic downturn has been hard on nonprofits, independent designers and fashion divas alike! Fundraising-In-Style a newly formed organization, launches a great way to join forces so everybody wins. This launch party kicks-off a series of fun, distinctively organized, wallet stretching, discount shopping events -
matching established and emerging independent designers with New York City non-profits and consumers looking to stretch their dollars.
