March Madness
Destination Fashion and Art for Life Miami Beach
As the Miami social season moves ever-closer to its conclusion, Allison Weiss Brady was on the scene with a few primetime events. March came in like a lion with Destination Fashion, followed by a fashion show hosted by Jayne Abess, Yolanda Berkowitz and Priya Panjabi. And last, but certainly not least, Allison co-chaired Russell and Danny Simmons’ Art for Life Miami Beach at the Fontainebleau.
