Only in San Francisco can you get couture with a side of condoms. Don’t miss A Night of Live-Saving Fashion, fall’s must-attend fête complete with cocktails, culinary delights, music and incredible live auction packages. But the big draw? A one-of-a-kind Condom Couture Fashion Show showcasing local and national designers’ fall collections … and a signature gown adorned with condoms. Alec Mapa from the hit TV show Ugly Betty will add excitement and humor as this year’s Master of Ceremonies.

Proceeds will benefit Project Inform, a nonprofit dedicated to providing information, inspiration and advocacy for people living with HIV/AIDS.
