The High Rollers

Ask any designer and they’ll tell you the fashion business is a high-stakes gamble. So it’s only fitting Maggie Rizer and her pals brought together gambling & glam fashion for a good cause at The Viva Glam Casino to benefit DIFFA (Design Industries Foundation Fighting Aids). Guests got that Vegas thrill playing with DIFFA dollars—at gaming tables hosted by celebrity models—which they cashed in for gifts and prizes donated by the New Age Health Spa, Nobu, Henri Bendel, Oscar de la Renta, The Four Seasons Private Bali Estates, Valentino, Narciso Rodriguez, and many more. Among the high-rolling fashionistas who played for charity: Title sponsor of Mac AIDS Fund and Mac Cosmetics’ John Demsey, Betsey Johnson, Anna Sui, and Kelly Klein. Viva Glam showgirls handed out fab Mac lipsticks to the crowd, and everyone went home a winner!
