Featuring the new ENVIREMWARE line in luxury, eco-fashion and environmental protection from DRC and the Root Brands

ELYSIAN, an international luxury lifestyle brand created to inspire and reflect the interests of women, will launch the Inaugural CatWalk FurBaby fundraiser on Friday, February 10th, 2023 at Sony Hall, kicking off New York Fashion Week 2023, hosted by Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin.
CatWalk FurBaby will pair designers, models, rescue animals and charities together for a morning of passion with a purpose. Ten models – wearing outfits designed by fashion designers including Marc Bouwer, Malan Breton, Karen Caldwell, Anne Fontaine, Gloria Lee, Merci Dupre, Nicole Miller, Noize Apparel, Victor de Souza and Brook Wilder – will each grace the runway with a four-legged companion, and a panel of celebrity judges headed by Fern Mallis with Carol Alt and Karen Abercrombie will hand out awards to animal welfare organizations paired with each model-and-pet team.
“This is the first time that fashion, animals and charity have been brought together in New York Fashion Week,” ELYSIAN Founder Karen Floyd said. “To do it in a way that will benefit the lives of countless pets adds a layer of meaning that will not soon be forgotten.”
DRC Ventures, a global catalyst for conservation efforts led by visionary founder Dr. Christina Rahm, is the event’s title sponsor. DRC Ventures is hosting Merci Dupre Clothiers couture line which is expected to become the ultimate in luxury, eco-fashion, and environmental protection. This unique line of ‘Enviremware’ clothing will host a protected coating of nano-biotech technology. This new form of apparel will offer an unbeatable barrier against hazardous toxins such as EMF radiation, heavy metals, viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungus, while supporting non-exposure of radio frequency electromagnetic particles from 5G. An additional clothing line, also hosting nano-biotech technology (for both people and animals), will include a partnership with Bill & Coo, a couture luxury pet and human fashion brand.
The ten animal welfare organizations which will be represented on the runway are: Operation Kindness (Texas), Friends of Williamson County Animal Shelter (Tennessee), Jameson Rescue (California), Danny & Ron’s Rescue (South Carolina and Florida), Big Dog Ranch Rescue (Florida), Freedom Dogs (Ohio and California), Strong Island Animal Rescue League (New York), Global Strays (New York), Animal Advocates of Barnwell County (South Carolina), and Companion Animal Alliance (Louisiana).
“CatWalk FurBaby is fashion and charity reimagined, remixed and re-energized. The ELYSIAN team and SohoMuse have brought together 10 designers from all over the country for one eclectic, high-energy show,” said Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin, the event’s emcee and cofounder and president of the creative networking site SohoMuse. “No two outfits will look the same, and some of our designers are so dedicated to the cause that they are creating complementary outfits for the pets.”
“Our nation’s animal shelters are facing unprecedented overcrowding due to inflation, housing restrictions, and a decrease in adoptions,” said Cathy Bissell, founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “BISSELL Pet Foundation is grateful to be the beneficiary charity of Catwalk FurBaby to make a difference for homeless pets in ten animal welfare organizations across the country. By supporting CatWalk FurBaby, participants will help deserving pets receive much-needed second chances through this one-of-a-kind event.”
CatWalk FurBaby was conceived by Floyd as a way to bring together creative powerhouses, women change-makers, and animal welfare organizations in an effort to make the world better for our furry companions under the auspices of ELYSIAN Impact, the brand’s philanthropic arm.
“Our readers are lifelong learners, successful in their lives and careers, and possess an insatiable curiosity. They also think about legacy, and the growing power of women in the philanthropic space. ELYSIAN Impact is dedicated to improving the lives of women, children, animals and the environment, and we are thrilled to have DRC Ventures as CatWalk FurBaby’s title sponsor, as their values are in line with our ethos,” Floyd said.
DRC Ventures’ mission is to create sustainable solutions that challenge the status quo creatively, scientifically, and artistically; to create products to support the health of individuals, animals, and the earth, with environmental attention also paid to land, air, and water conservation. It is spearheaded by Dr. Christina Rahm, a multi-talented doctor, psychologist, scientist, patent innovator, humanitarian, and author.
Limited tickets are still available for the Event which is located at Sony Hall @ Paramount Hotel, 235 West 46th Street, New York, NY 10036. Doors open at 10:00am and the show commences at 11:00 am.

editor — Fri, 07 Sep 2012 21:37:50 +0000

NEW YORK CITY – Monday, September 3^rd, marked the end of a successful week of collaboration between A Free Bird and Celebrity Chef Floyd Cardoz! A Free Bird Organization’s young rising star, Nicole Morreale, collaborated with Top Chef Master Floyd Cardoz and Battery Park City restaurant, North End Grill, to create a special dessert. This sweet treat was made exclusively to celebrate and support A Free Bird’s mission to give young artists who have been affected by cancer a chance to continue exploring their passions. Winner of Bravo’s Top Chef Masters competition, Floyd Cardoz, and the pastry chef of North End Grill, Alexandra Ray, worked with seventeen-year-old culinary enthusiast and pediatric cancer survivor, Nicole Morreale, to create a special peach ice cream and raspberry sorbet sundae.

From August 27th through September 3rd, the dessert was featured on North End Grill’s menu as an exclusive item, and the proceeds along with donations are going directly to A Free Bird, as well as the Pediatric Cancer Foundation and Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital of New York Presbyterian.

This event was a great accomplishment! On Monday, August 27^th, actor and film producer, Leonardo DiCaprio, was at the North End Grill and generously donated to A Free Bird’s cause. Our sponsors included Best Buy, Vivendi Corp., Power Ice, Dasha Wellness and Spa, and In2Website. 16th Avenue Home Center and The Peppermill Inc. donated cookware for Nicole, and Home Cooking New York donated cooking classes for the aspiring chef. When asked about the opportunity to work with the skilled Chef Cardoz, Nicole said, “The experience I had was in fact amazing…This opportunity was one in a million. It’s every child’s dream to meet and collaborate with people who they believe that they might become when they’re older. In this case this was a dream of mine, to get a sneak peek look at what goes on in a professional kitchen.”

Nicole was diagnosed with a brain tumor when she was 7 years old. Now 17, she is cancer free and dreams of being a pastry chef. She has even showcased her cooking and baking skills at events for the Pediatric Cancer Foundation and impressed her supporters with her talent and passion for cooking. A Free Bird is very happy that we had the opportunity to help Nicole pursue her goal and we look forward to helping many more young artists.
