This week, we were honored to be in attendance at the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women Red Dress Collection 2015 presented by Macy’s. This celebrity fashion show of strictly red dresses happens every February during New York Fashion Week. The goal of this event is to dispel the publicly held misconception that heart disease is just a man’s disease–women are at risk and suffer from this disease as well! Many of our favorite celebrities were in attendance and on the runway to show their support for this cause. Keep reading to see their fab looks!

ciara

Our favorite look of the night was Ciara in Safiyaa! Her hair and makeup alone are stunning and the dress fit her frame so perfectly. She is giving Ariana Grande some serious competition for the half-up, half-down ‘do!

 Backstage Christina caught up with Ciara and got a behind-the-scenes glimpse at her hair look before she hit the runway. This hair look was perfected by Hairstylist Cesar Ramirez and makeup by MUA Sheika Daley (assisted by Christina’s good friend & MUA Sisi Nike).

This event was especially personal for heart disease survivor, Star Jones who wore a beautiful B.Michael gown. She was fabulous on the runway with not a purse, but a puppy as her statement accessory. Such a diva!

 

laverne and dascha

The ladies of Orange is the New Black strike again! Dascha Polanco and Laverne Cox were gorgeous in their matching red dresses and blonde hair. Dascha’s Michael Costello gown hugged all her curves in all the right places while Laverne wore a more flowing silhouette from Donna Karan made for twirling, and she did just that!

 WERK!

Backstage Christina caught snaps of Laverne giving “side eye chic” while getting her hair done by none other than celebrity stylist Ursula Stephens.

zendaya

One of our fashion favorites, Zendaya, also made a runway appearance. This structured strapless Rubin Singer gown was the perfect choice for her. Z is clearly taking notes from Beyoncé because her hair wind game is on fleek!

Christina caught another behind-the-scenes glimpse of Zendaya being primped by hairstylist Tym Wallace and makeup done by Sheika Daley (assistance & touch-ups by Sisi Nike).

 

cynthia bailey go red

Real Housewife of Atlanta and Model, Cynthia Bailey kept her silhouette free and flowing on the runway in this Macy’s Philadelphia Incubator designer Jovan O’Connor. This empire waist halter gown is great on her body.

Here Christina and blogger Ty Alexander of Gorgeous in Grey are seen photobombing a pic of Cynthia Bailey and Laverne Cox backstage. Both ladies were so stunning!

bethany mota

Youtube Beauty Vlogger, Bethany Mota, also made an appearance at the show in a dress by Badgley Mischka. Her hair and makeup were flawless!

 

hoda dance

Hoda Kotb, host of the TODAY show, brought so much energy to the show! She walked/danced her way down the runway to “Uptown Funk” and as you can see, couldn’t contain herself! We love the simple one shoulder silhouette from Romona Keveza and slit to show off her shoe game. Go Hoda!

estelle

Estelle didn’t walk in the show, but was in attendance to support the Go Red for Women fashion show in a red velvet dress. Love the silhouette, not sure about the fabric choice and booties though. Thoughts?

fifth harmony

The hot new girl group, Fifth Harmony, strutted into a performance during the fashion show too clad in BCBGeneration. Hair is LAID and their shoe game is on point! Now that is how you make an appearance.

What did you think of everyone’s looks?
