Isis Maternity, New England's largest provider of prenatal and postpartum health education and wellness services, is welcoming spring with a grand fashion show displaying a full line of hip and chic maternity and nursing collections.
The Spring Fashion Show will benefit the Ellie Fund (http://www.elliefund.org/), a non-profit organization that improves the health and welfare of women and families undergoing breast cancer treatment in Massachusetts. The event will be hosted by WCVB's Kelley Tuthill, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in December 2006 and she chose to share her journey through cancer surgery and treatment with the public through a series of video diaries and blogs.
(Tuthill was profiled in Bay State Parent magazine's award-winning Think Pink Guide in the October 2007 issue. Read her story at: http://www.baystateparent.com/news/2007/1001/Articles/014.html)
Isis Maternity will host the Fashion Show on Saturday, April 5 from 6 to 9 p.m. in its Needham center location at 110 Second Avenue. In addition to the runway show, there will be exciting raffle items including a Stokke Sleepi and Care Nursery Set and Cariboo Bassinet & Petunia Pickle Bottom Fawn Bedding.
Tickets for the event are $25 with $20 donated directly to the Ellie Fund. In addition, Isis Maternity will be donating all raffle proceeds and 10% of all sales for the night to the Ellie Fund.
