What fun when a charitable cause meets up with a fashion dynamo and a party ensues. That was the case at Tootsies when Sachin & Babi co-founder and creative director Babi Ahluwalia swept in with a fab fashion presentation to help the Diaper Foundation celebrate 10 years of giving.

Store director Shelley Taylor Ludwick, honorary chair, welcomed the merry throng, noting that when Diaper Foundation founder Hope Ewing came to her with the thought of a 10th anniversary celebration, she was all in. In fact, Tootsies was the first one to hold a diaper drive for Ewing. So, it was only fitting that Tootsies step in to celebrate the milestone and the one millionth diaper that had been donated to a needy mother.

“So this is a wonderful night of shopping and celebration,” Ludwick says.

It was a celebration on many levels as who wouldn’t applaud Sachin & Babi for its all-inclusive sizing. From 0 to 20 and with price points from $165 to $5,000, the line indeed offers something for everyone. The refined evening gowns and separates, sprinkled with the line’s embroidered embellishments and sequin swaths had the smart phones popping.

Hosting the event were Diaper Foundation supporters Ericka Bagwell, Megan Hotze, Leisa Holland-Nelson, Torsha Johnson, Shawntell McWilliams, Roz Pactor, Lisa Oren and Vicki Rizzo. 

Proceeds from tickets and a percentage of sales were dedicated to the Diaper Foundation, which helps underprivileged families acquire adequate diapering supplies for their children. In addition to diaper assistance, the organization focuses on raising awareness on poverty issues, and providing families with hope for the future.
