Haute Events Boston: Chic at W Hotel Boston
by Joe De Lucca

This week I attended the Chic at the W Hotel Boston during the Boston Fashion Week, a luxury fashion show featuring the fall/winter 2010 fur collection of Carmen Marc Valvo of New York City. Hosted by the “dress diva” Yolanda Celluci, the event benefited ovarian cancer research, awareness and patient programs via Ovations: for the cure of ovarian cancer.
The music was trendy and bumping by the DJ Michael Savant as the show featured some very luxurious designs from Carmen Marc Valvo. The crowd was very enthusiastic about the fur collection and overall the show was a pleasant event that in the end benefited such a great cause.
If you’re in the area during next year’s Boston Fashion Week, I really recommend checking out one of the Chic shows.

In 2004, Mark Zuckerberg dropped out of Harvard University to pursue his dream of starting Facebook, now a multi-billion dollar company that is a part of nearly everybody's day to day life. Perhaps that is why the young tech mogul went back to his former school to recruit for his company.
