Miami, FL – February 6, 2014 – Nearly 500 of Miami’s most philanthropic and fashion-forward ladies gathered to celebrate the 3rd Annual Wine, Women & Shoes Gala presented by Roger Vivier Paris benefiting the children and families at Miami Children’s Hospital. The sold-out soiree took place on Thursday afternoon at the Coral Gables Country Club and raised nearly half a million dollars for Miami Children’s Hospital and its world-class pediatric healthcare. This year’s event was even more special, as Roger Vivier Paris, the fashion house credited with the design of the first stiletto heel, served as presenting sponsor. Attendees were treated to a runway show with fashions from Neiman Marcus Coral Gables and a creative shoe contest. The ladies also enjoyed delectable wine tasting, a one-of-a-kind silent auction, and a delicious lunch. One of the most unique aspects of the afternoon was the participation of the “Shoe Guys,” who displayed the latest in women’s fashion on silver platters for everyone’s enjoyment. The highlight of the luncheon was the moving story of Harrison, a 12-year-old whose life was saved by Miami Children’s Hospital Emergency Department and the talented staff of the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit. This year’s outstanding sponsors also included Tina & Dan Carlo, U by Kotex,  4Beauty Aesthetics, MOMO Italy, Premier Beverage Company, Everest Capital, Karla Conceptual Event Experiences, Miami Heat Charitable Fund, Menu Men, Inc., Wells Fargo, Brownie Brittle, Clear Channel Media & Entertainment, Ocean Drive Magazine and Social Miami.
