Painting the Town Red

Desi Arnaz would have been in his glory during the glitziest of Fashion Week's high-profile events. Had he stumbled on "The Heart Truth," the man who sang "The lady in red is as fresh as a daisy when the town is in bed," would have been delighted to spy not just one lady in red, but twenty. Yes, the runway was filled with red-clad ladies, each one in a dress more stunning than the last. Vivica Fox, 90210 alumnae Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling, Susan Lucci, Kristi Yamaguchi (left), a pair of Amandas (Beard and Bynes) and other luminati took to the red carpet in gowns designed by the likes of Betsey Johnson, Donna Karan and Max Azria to help raise awareness about heart disease, the number-one killer of women. If you think you can pull off a red dress yourself, check out clothesoffourback.com, where several of the gowns worn in the show will be auctioned. The sale concludes on February 27 and the ensembles will be on display at Top of the Rock's Observation Deck through February 21.
