On Monday, Oct. 15th, I got to witness Kevan Hall's newest designs for Spring 2008 at Smashbox Studios in Culver City. See the article writen about this at: http://news.sawf.org/Designers/43760.aspx
It was truly amazing from inside out. Kevan Hall's Presentation was called: A Call to Action Collection. He credited gift bags worth over $13,000 which were auctioned off and the proceeds benefit The Africa Millennium Foundation.

Not only is Kevan one of my favorite designers, but I love how he uses his celebrity to make a positive difference for others. Apart of the Fashion Shows are the Red Carpet pictures and interviews. I see this as a fun opportunity to talk with different media about things that matter and why I think it is important to support issues like Global Literacy and Poverty Alleviation (See: http://alexandrarieger.com/My_Homepage_Files/Page3.html) and to support others doing this as well. It was fun being interviewed by RTL, Germany's top television station, in German. http://www.pixsy.com/detailframe.aspx?i=65728386&q=Alexandra%20Rieger&aq=true&url=http://www.viewimages.com/Search.aspx?mid=77346044&epmid=3&Partner=Pixsy
