Last Friday, the Stephen Lewis Foundation held its fifth-annual Dare To Wear Love gala, a fashion show and fundraiser for HIV/AIDS relief efforts in Africa. This year’s batch of models once again included some familiar names, like supermodel Stacey McKenzie, The Social co-host Traci Melchor and songstress Divine Brown, who opened the show with a musical number. (Also spotted sashaying down the runway: condo mogul Brad Lamb, sporting a rather extravagant hairpiece.) They wore designs from Canadian talents like Mikael Derderian, David Dixon and the duo behind Greta Constantine. Altogether, the night’s festivities raised an impressive $270,000. Here, 36 shots of the colourful, feel-good event.
