Approximately 200 guests enjoyed a lovely Spring evening of fashion at Liberty’s Project Style fundraiser at the New Haven Lawn Club on April 1. The event included a special guest appearance by Kara Janx, a designer who was on Project Runway, showing some of her latest Spring fashions. In addition, Liberty recruited seven New Haven area designers who were given the challenge of creating an outfit based upon clothing donations that had been given to Liberty. The New Haven designers engaged the crowd with their creative, well-crafted, and stunning designs. Desiree Fontaine from WTNH’s Connecticut Style introduced the designers. Proceeds from the event will be used to advance Liberty’s mission of providing permanent housing for people who are homeless
