StyleAid2012

“15 years is a long time to successfully maintain and re-invent an event and it’s a true testament to the committee, sponsors and volunteers who work tirelessly to put it all together. Happy Birthday STYLEAID gives us the opportunity to do what we do best. Make some noise, celebrate and PARTY”
– Stephanie Patniotis, Event Co-Ordinator.

Established in 1998, STYLEAID in a fundraising initiative for the WA AIDS Council, raising money for the provision of support and care services for people living with HIV and prevention and education programs in WA. As the major fundraising event of the WA AIDS Council, STYLEAID is known for its creative boldness and innovation and its vital role to the ongoing success of this organisation.

This year STYLEAID turns 15 and plans to celebrate the event with another black tie event, catering for up to 750 people. The event will take inspiration from a child's birthday party, celebrating the milestone as well as the rainsing of $1 million since the event started.

Traditions will continue as the fashion industry’s finest take to the catwalk to showcase their Spring/Summer 2012 collections. While the list of designers currently remains under lock and key, this year’s line up is already stacking up to be a memorable one.

Photographer Richard Jefferson has vividly captured the images that tell the story for
STYLEAID 2012.  This year’s birthday party theme encompasses all things celebratory as the STYLEAID family unites for one big party. 

Happy Birthday STYLEAID will be held at the Burswood Entertainment Complex on Friday 27th of July 2012. Tickets on sale at the end of May.
