On April 3rd donors to Susan G. Komen’s Passionately Pink for the Curse were treated to a sneak preview of Belk’s three-story flagship store in the Dallas Galleria mall and a night of fashion, food, and philanthropy. Belk is a large supporter of Susan G. Komen and 100% of donations from the evening directly benefited the organization.

Belk previewed Spring looks during a fashion show outside the mall entrance. Before the show, Arlene Goldstein, Belk’s VP of Trend Merchandising and Fashion Direction, interviewed Nashville star Hayden Panettiere, who is Belk’s brand ambassador and one of the celebrity guests for the evening. Hayden spoke eloquently about topics such as her environmental activism, musical influences, and southern upbringing.

The fashion show highlighted Belk’s “Modern. Southern. Style.” and spring trends such as Clean Slate, Feminine Charm, and Jetsetter.

Clean Slate featured minimalist black and white outfits with trendy silhouettes and interesting prints. Feminine Charm showcased beautiful, pastel dresses with flirty touches like lace and bows. The “Jetsetter” trend had tribal and multicultural influences, with animal prints, leather and chambray. The final looks were from the formal collection—elegant gowns and suits that incorporated both traditional and modern style.
