Today, February 11, more than 20 of today's hottest celebrities will walk the runway in Red Dresses created by America's top designers to raise awareness of women and heart disease. Jordin will be a featuring celebrity during this event. The Heart Truth® will go "behind the seams" on the opening night of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week to warn women of their #1 health threat.

The Heart Truth created and introduced The Red Dress as the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness in 2002 to deliver an urgent wake-up call to American women. The Red Dress reminds women of the need to protect their heart health and inspires them to take action. Each February since its launch, The Red Dress symbol has come to life on the runway with the support of the fashion industry and celebrity models at the Red Dress Collection Fashion Show.

For the second year in a row, a selection of dresses worn by celebrities in Red Dress Collection fashion shows will be available for the public to bid on at www.clothesoffourback.org through a partnership with the Clothes Off Our Back Foundation. Proceeds will benefit the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health and will be used to further efforts related to women's heart health awareness and research.
