Cincy Chic Hosts Seventh Annual "Lady In Red" on National Wear Red Day

CINCINNATI - Jan. 19, 2016 - PRLog -- Nearly a thousand men and women will be dressed in red for the seventh annual “Lady in Red” event on National Wear Red Day -- Friday, February 5 – at Macy’s Fountain Square location from 6-10 p.m.

Hosted by Cincy Chic, the only online publication for women in Greater Cincinnati, Lady In Red invites guests to enjoy a 20% storewide discount, fun photo booth and fundraising activities. The fashionable fundraiser will culminate with a Macy’s-sponsored fashion show. General admission tickets are $15 and 200 VIP tickets are available for $25. All tickets include a swag bag, light bites, and refreshments. VIP tickets include a coveted spot along the runway. All proceeds from the event will go to the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women campaign.

Lady In Red will take place on National Wear Red Day, drawing awareness to an important cause. Lori Fovel, Communications Director at the Cincinnati branch of the American Heart Association, explains the importance of educating women about this all-too-common disease. “[Our] movement harnesses the energy, passion, and power women have to band together and collectively wipe out heart disease,” she explains. “[Go Red for Women] challenges them to know their risk and take action to reduce [it]. It also gives them the tools they need to lead a heart health life.”

National Wear Red Day is a visual reminder of the commonality of heart disease, as it is the number one killer of women. “National Wear Red Day is held on the first Friday in February every year…this coming National Wear Red Day, February 5, marks our 13-year anniversary,” Fovel says. What’s more powerful than heart disease, she says? “Millions of mothers, sisters, daughters, and friends making a change.” About the importance of events like Lady In Red, Fovel says, “Cincy Chic and the AHA share a mission to meet people where they are, and Lady In Red does just that.”
