Looking for a fun night out with your girlfriends that also supports a good cause? Mark your calendars for Little Black Dress, a fashion-forward runway show complete with specialty cocktails, live music, VIP experiences, and immersive photo moments, taking place Friday, August 21 at JW Marriott Grand Rapids. And even cooler? A portion of proceeds from the event supports Michigan Women Forward in their work to support women entrepreneurs and leaders across the state.
For those looking to end the summer in style, Little Black Dress returns to JW Marriott Grand Rapids with an evening of fashion from The James Boutique, music from DJ Rock City, entertainment, and plenty more. The annual event truly transforms the hotel into a vibrant and memorable night out.
“Summer calendars fill up quickly, but Little Black Dress has become a signature annual event because it offers something different,” said Olivia LaVergne, Event and Wedding Manager at JW Marriot Grand Rapids. “From the runway show and VIP lounges to specialty cocktails and a lively dance floor, it's an elevated evening of fashion, entertainment and connection, all while supporting Michigan Women Forward and its mission to empower women in our communities. Whether you're planning a girls' night, a date night, or simply looking to hit the town in style, Little Black Dress is an event worth making room for."
In addition to the event being a fun night out on the town, it also helps make a real difference in the lives of women entrepreneurs and leaders.
“The revenue from this event helps raise unrestricted funds to support our statewide efforts to break down gender and racial barriers to improve economic equality, equity, and wealth,” said Laura Town, CFRE, Executive Director – West Michigan, Michigan Women Forward. “Each year, we refine, expand, and create new opportunities to support Women entrepreneurs.”
