Own the gorgeous red gown modeled by Rachael Ray at New York Fashion Week and the original designer’s sketch. Rachael made her much-anticipated catwalk debut in this Donna Karan Collection dress, created especially for The Heart Truth’s Red Dress Collection 2007 Fashion Show to help raise awareness of women’s heart disease.

Feel like a Grecian goddess in this beautiful, one-shoulder evening dress. The long, flowing jersey blend material gracefully cascades to the floor on this dress which features elegant draping at the bust.

Designed to warn women of their #1 health threat, The Heart Truth created and introduced the Red Dress as the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness in 2002 to deliver an urgent wake-up call to American women. The Red Dress reminds women of the need to protect their heart health and inspires them to take action. The Heart Truth is sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.

Auction proceeds benefit the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) and will be used to further efforts related to women’s heart health awareness and research.
