Celebrities and entertainers took turns under the runway spotlight for the Cocouture Fashion Show: Men in Brown, part of Toronto’s second-annual Chocolate Festival Week. The event, held at the Palais Royale, raised funds for prostate cancer research at Princess Margaret Hospital.
Journalist and former Golden Glove Champion Spider Jones, television celebrity Mike Bullard, and Canadian Idol judges Farley Flex and Zack Werner were among those who donated their time to the worthy cause. Clothing suppliers for the fashion show included Bogarts, Buffalo Jeans, Lacoste Boutique, and Gino’s Fashion. Gotstyle provided clothing and also chipped in a pair of cufflinks for each gift bag.
In addition to supplying the venue, Palais Royale contributed staff, accent candles, tables and chairs, and the audiovisual system. Bono impersonator Matt Ester and electric violinist Dr. Draw provided live entertainment, while Ben Melbye from Hey DJ! supplied DJ services. Mobile spa company Spadirect invited guests to indulge in back messages and chocolate hand messages.
The fashion show ended on a solemn note. One by one, producer Joey Cee and the participating celebrities and entertainers traversed the catwalk, each carrying a sign identifying a close friend or relative who had lost their battle with cancer.
