Jordan Tesfay, the first plus size Covergirl and Compassion Brands, collective of socially conscious executives in fashion design, retail, the arts and philanthropy that brings awareness and support to charitable causes, through positive messaging fashion and accessories, came together to host a fashion week opening reception to celebrate the many ways #CurvyGirlsRock.
Despite the frigid night, the crowd were kept warm inside casual, East Village neighborhood bar/restaurant, Bait & Hook, by the great music, delicious cocktails, and decadent cupcakes by Kay Martin and her glam Cupcake Kay’s.
Although this fashion week event took place on the day before fashion week, it was not our only event and because of location, had to be our last. Sadly we missed a great performance by The Voice’s Blessing Offor, and a great celeb turnout which included cast members from TV Shows Gotham, Law & Order: SVU, singers Jazmine Sullivan, and Ledisi, a few Bravolebrities, etc. The end ending with us walking away with some great gifted pieces from Compassion brands, which we’ve been proudly wearing.
