The reigning and ever so charming, Miss Georgia USA,

Kimberly Gittings

, was the special guest celebrity at a charity event for the

Eating Disorders Information Network,

EDIN

.

The benefit party titled,

Feed the Models…Save the World

was hosted by

LUXE Atlanta

boutique and catered deliciously by

Livingston

,

Gary Mennie’s

restaurant at the Georgian Terrace. Guests enjoyed great food and grooved to the latest music, spun live by

DJ Jay McCracken

, while they purchased their designer Feed the Models shirt with proceeds going to EDIN.

(back story in a nutshell)

The Feed the Models campaign, launched locally more than two years ago by

UrbanCouture

(UC), Grady High School’s fashion design program and its creator E. Vincent Martinez, was a stylish reaction to the seriousness of eating disorders. UC’s top designers, who are high school seniors, felt passionately about creating a fundraiser for a cause that is relevant to young people and is a real problem within the fashion industry, to which they hope to be a part of someday.

LUXE
