SUZY STUMP: FASHION FIGHTS BREAST CANCER >>>

Sister, you tan is fading. Fast. Please store your summer blouses next to that Thighmaster. The time has come to once again to evaluate your fashion-preparedness for winter. To help remedy this situation, the Rebecca V Gallery has teamed up with a handful of Tacoma designers for a fashion auction Oct. 24 to raise funds for the Breast Cancer Resource Center in Tacoma. With a kicking soundtrack by keyboardist Robcat, models roaming about smartly, treats by Asado and Masa, the event’s main attraction will be a silent auction loaded with outfits and vacation packages.

Rebecca V Gallery Director Odessa Poole says gifts of cash or checks made out to the Breast Cancer Resource Center will be accepted and greatly appreciated.

Just remember: If you don’t look good, your town doesn’t look good and, in turn, you don’t look good again. 

[Rebecca V Gallery, Friday, Oct. 24, 6-9 p.m., $10 donation, which includes a raffle entry, 3010 Sixth Ave., Tacoma, 253 572 9111]
