On Oct. 12, the Children’s Service Board hosted its 62nd Annual Gold Coast Fashion Award Show at Revel Fulton Market in Chicago. The event raised more than $1.2 million for the Molecular Oncology and Bioinformatics Program at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.
During the event, fashion designer Pamella Roland, a longtime supporter of Lurie Children’s Hospital, was given the Children’s Service Board Award of Excellence. Guests were treated to drinks and food from Almighty Spirits, Bar Siena, Gibson’s, Lou Malnati’s and Sunda, and there was a dessert bar featuring the best treats from Glazed and Infused, Sweet Mandy B’s and more. Later, guests participated in a paddle raise and live auction.
Guests also enjoyed a fashion show from Neiman Marcus Michigan Avenue that showcased the latest items available at the luxury store. Now, we want to hear from you! Vote for your favorite look from the event using the form at the end of this page and we’ll feature the winners in the Better Makers section of our January/February print magazine.
