The Dimes Add Up
A host of beauty and fashion insiders, including Tommy Hilfiger and Iman, turned out last night for the 37th annual March of Dimes Beauty Ball, which raises funds for the March of Dimes, the leading nonprofit organization for pregnancy and baby health. On hand as well were the evening’s two honorees, Gina Sanders, CEO of Fairchild Fashion Media (which includes Style.com and Women’s Wear Daily), and Mindy Grossman, CEO of HSN, Inc. “There is one word that can describe my feelings right now, and that’s gratitude,” Sanders told the audience when she received the night’s Beautiful Apple Award. But as she reminded the crowd, this was an evening with a goal, and “our mission tonight is to turn…inspiration into action.” There to oblige was Phillips de Pury & Co. auctioneer CK Swett, who hosted a live auction, called Fund the Mission, to raise more money for the worthy cause.

iWWD
For 101 years, WWD has been at the forefront of fashion news. Today, our sister publication at Fairchild Fashion Media announced a new move to extend its coverage to readers around the globe—the WWD iPad edition.
What does this mean for WWD disciples? Enhanced article views, slideshows with extra images not available in the paper (meaning more McQueen and Balenciaga to gush over), and a live “Eye” section news feed, viewable directly from your seat at the Marc Jacobs show.
WWD App for the iPad is available on the Apple App Store. The app is free for existing print or online WWD subscribers and $169 for the bundled WWD subscription.
