There is a TON of work that goes into producing a fashion show; especially one as important as the FASHION FIGHTS AIDS: SF AIDS Foundation Benefit FASHION SHOW 2010 happening at the Horizon Lounge in San Francisco on July 16th.
It may be the models who walk the runway, but it’s the people behind the scenes who got them there.
