Hope Chest Brunch and Fashion Show

Shop for a cause on May 3 at the ever-popular Hope Chest for Breast Cancer Brunch and Fashion Show at the Galleria. Sip mimosas while previewing the season’s must-have styles from the likes of Len Druskin, Lucy, and others. Afterward, hit the Galleria’s posh shops, where a portion of proceeds from some stores will benefit Hope Chest.
