Tulips and Pansies - The headdress affair

This year, an impressive roster of top tier fashion designers such as Betsey Johnson, Alvin Valley, Catherine Malandrino, Yigal Azrouel, Shoshanna, Lela Rose, Magda Berliner, Cynthia Steffe, Jordi Scott, b. michael, Alexis Bittar and others were paired with NYC's finest floral designers to create a high-fashion runway show of elaborate floral headdresses made entirely from living plants and fresh cut flowers. The event (now in its 7th year) raises funds for Village Care of New York (http://www.vcny.org), a non-profit organization that provides much-needed health care programs to people living with HIV/AIDS. (My fave is the ice cream cone!)
