2012 FASHION SHOW

Fashion Fighting Famine's (FFF) 2012 Fashion Show featured over 700 glamorous attendees of all backgrounds traveling from as far as Egypt, Dubai, Singapore, New York, and all across the U.S. Held on Sunday, June 3, 2012 in Irvine, California, the 5th Annual Fashion Show featured seven designers presenting a diverse and highly anticipated line-up. With daytime and evening ready-to-wear from designers Abaya Addict, Hijab-ista, Meem, Marena Y Sol, and Mohajababes, and signature scarves from designers SixteenR and Vela, the runway, designed by 2Create Designs, was aglow with dazzling, versatile pieces designed by and for American-Muslim women.

The 2012 Fashion Show benefited the FFF Cause of the Year, One Laptop Per Child, as well as Syria for Relief and Development. The esteemed celebrity guests of the evening were Ibtihaj Muhammad, member of the U.S. National Fencing Team, and Lena Khan, director of the upcoming film "The Tiger Hunter." Media attending the event included KCET, LA Weekly, Aslan Media, Islamic Horizons, and Aquila Style.
2010: AN OLD HOLLYWOOD AFFAIR

On May 1st, 2010, Fashion Fighting Famine rolled out the red carpet for an evening of glamorous fashion, jaw-dropping performances, and a bustling bazaar! Over 700 women attended “An Old Hollywood Affair,” a charity fashion show dedicated to the women and children in Mali. Our runway featured designed hijabs by Vela, evening-wear by Layla Jalanbo Originals, and street-wear by TreyQ, among others. 

We raised thousands of dollars for the Widow’s Cooperative micro-loan program, an amazing endeavor that provides widowed women with the opportunity to gain an education, including reading, writing, accounting, and even using computers. They are then given micro-loans that allow them to start up their own successful businesses to support their families and contribute to their communities.
