Charity Fashion Show moves to San Francisco

“I couldn’t be more excited about the move to San Francisco. For the last two years people have always told our team that we should produce the event in SF, not at Stanford. This year we are happy to be taking advantage of new opportunities and to be making exactly that jump.”

-Thom Scher

For weeks we’ve been hearing buzz about Charity Fashion Show 2011, and a big announcement about the always spectacular event. Well I don’t think anyone saw this coming–Stanford’s Charity Fashion Show will not be held at Stanford this year! But in a surprisingly spectacular move CFS will be moving to San Francisco!

I am not at all surprised that the amazing team of directors consisting of the always fabulous Thom Scher, Stephanie Werner, Brooke Smith, and Saroya Whatley is making this move. With an all star team like this we can only expect to see a show that will be nothing short of thrilling and sensational!

Statement Released by CFS:

“We are pleased to announce that Charity Fashion Show is taking a giant leap forward and moving our annual event to San Francisco’s Fort Mason Center on 04.02.11.

After two fantastic seasons of unparalleled success at Stanford University, we have decided to take advantage of new opportunities. This year, you will still see your favorite elements of Charity Fashion Show — a world class production, the hottest up and coming designers, and an exclusive slice of the Bay Area’s fashionable elite. Our mission of multicultural arts promotion, ethnic diversity, and positive image remain strong, and we are proud to continue the Future Faces of Fashion High School Internship Program.

With a new year and a new location, Charity Fashion Show will also be making some changes. The production has been revamped to make every seat feel like a front row seat. With the shift away from Stanford, Charity Fashion Show is happy to open modeling opportunities and volunteer positions to the entire Bay Area. The 2011 beneficiary will be announced in the coming weeks.

We look forward to continuing our great relationships with sponsors, designers, press, and all of our fans, and with only 64 days until showtime, our staff has kicked into full gear. Directors Thom Scher, Stephanie Werner, Brooke Smith, and Saroya Whatley and the staff of Charity Fashion Show are committed to making this year’s production one that goes down in San Francisco history.

Open casting calls will take place in early February for models. Anyone interested in getting involved as a sponsor, designer, member of the press, or volunteer should contact info@charityfashionshow.org

We look forward to seeing you at the Fort Mason Center in San Francisco on 04.02.11.”
