For 6 years now, a star-studded runway has been laid out during New York Fashion Week, in support of an amazing cause.
Last Thursday, The sixth annual Blue Jacket Fashion Show was held in support of prostate cancer awareness, sponsored by Janssen Oncology, part of the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson. The show benefited nonprofit advocacy group ZERO – The End of Prostate Cancer, and its efforts to raise awareness and funding to support prostate cancer patients and to improve early detection and reduce mortality. Early detection saves countless lives, and the more funding and research that we have make it more and more common.
A dazzling cast of models walked the runway this year, Al Roker (in The Privelege),Mario Cantone (in Gustavo Moscoso), Don Lemon (in Bruno Magli), Wilson Cruz (in Loris Diran), Dale Moss (in Ben Sherman), Nigel Barker (in Michael Kors), Amir Arison (Romero Britto & Levi’s), Mickey Boardman (Mr. Mickey & Rubin Singer), Dante Bowe (in Tommy Hilfiger), Frank DiLella (in Men’s Warehouse),Jay Jay French (in Loris Diran), Dominic Fumusa (in Men’s Warehouse), Carlos Greer (in Gustavo Moscoso), Omar Hernandez (in Tommy Hilfiger), Marcus Samuelsson (in Thom Browne), Musa Jackson (in Edwing D’Angelo), Khalil Kain (in Arjona Collection), Alex Lundqvist (in Stephen F), Ty-Ron Mayes (in Tuxedo Action), Doctor Mike, Les Trent (in Men’s Warehous), Shannon Wallace (in Acool55 & Levi’s), Eric West (in David Hart), Dr. Jacob Taylor (in Son Jung Wan) and others, along with Blue Jacket co-founders Frederick Anderson and Laura Miller as well as ZERO – The End of Prostate Cancer, Vice President of Health Equity, Reggie Tucker-Seeley (in Men’s Warehouse). The evening featured a very special tribute to André Leon Tally, who had hosted the event in 2019, and virtually in 2020. VIP attendees included Anna Wintour, Fern Mallis, Orfeh, Miss Universe, Harnaaz Sadhu, J. Alexander, Deborah Roberts, and many more.
