The Invitation

Where fashion meets unconditional love.

Through this evening we create visibility, community engagement, and financial contribution for IgniteHer’s Purple Paws Initiative — helping survivors move toward safety without being separated from the animals they love.

An evening of couture, conversation, and quiet courage. Touches of purple welcomed.
