The Once Upon A Runway {A TOY STORY} will include models with deafness, blindness, craniofacial birth defects, and down syndrome disabilities. These individuals are challenging the fashion industry’s standard of beauty by not shying away from their natural beauty.
On January 16th, 2020 at 6:00 pm for VIP and 7:00 pm for general admission, New York's most famous toy store featured in the movies Big and Home Alone 2, FAO Schwarz, is shutting its doors early for a red carpet private shopping experience, including a fashion runway presentation and music performances.
From left to right: Abigail Adams is an actress, model, and advocate with Down syndrome. Weston Wright is a child male model who is blind. Alexis German Beutel is a NYC deaf male model. Cynthia Murphy is a health activist and entrepreneur with Treacher Collins.
This year, the fashion and beauty industries will move toward even greater change as this event is in conjunction with diverse individuals and industries, which ties in with the reason for the comeback of FAO Schwarz. While brick and mortar retail shops like FAO are frequently closing, this trend is what brings customers into the stores.
The venue is located FAO Schwarz at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, NY 10111, and will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Center, a renowned medical facility that treats the toughest childhood cancers and pediatric diseases.
