Rock the Runway!

We went to VIDA’s Penthouse Pool Club Saturday for Rock the Runway. The event was a fusion of haute couture collections accompanied by original music. We snapped the guests of honor, actress Jamie Gray Hyder (Graceland and True Blood) and the emcee, Michelle Obama’s makeup artist, Carl Ray.

T.H.E Artist Agency's Lynda Erkiletian is surrounded by CW's Paul Wharton and actor Lamont Easter.

The rooftop was packed with over 300 who enjoyed an open bar, hors d'oeuvres, a skyline view, dessert bar, and swag bags with restaurant gift cards, store discounts and cosmetics. Here, Flavius Galiber, Becky Lee, Matt Martini, Wendy Castillo and Amie Piddington.

People packed around the pool where the show and concert took place, atop the water. Models strutted down the seemingly floating runway as the band Amber Sands and Grammy-nominated artist Wayna performed.

Proceeds benefited Music Unites, the leading charity organization nationwide supporting music programs for inner city schools. Here, T.H.E Artist Agency models.

Hosted by Haute Haus Agency, the event featured fashions donated by designer Marchesa in New York City and Rent the Runway in Georgetown.
