The American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women is hosting the iconic annual Red Dress Collection fashion show on Wednesday, February 5th, 2020 at 5 p.m. PT/7 p.m. CT/8 p.m. ET at the Manhattan Center’s Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
The Red Dress Collection brings together dozens of stars and pop culture icons who hit the catwalk shining a light on heart disease in women. The beauty of this event truly lies in the message of empowerment they bring to fighting women’s No. 1 health threat – heart disease. The event, founded by The Heart Truth program at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health, serves as Go Red for Women’s national marquee event aimed at increasing awareness of heart disease in women, and uniting women as a relentless force to end heart disease and stroke globally.

Andrews (professional softball player), Bailee Madison (Good Witch and The Fosters), Camille Schrier (Miss America 2020 and doctor of pharmacy student), Constance Zimmer (Unreal and A Million Little Things), Darlene Love (Academy and Grammy Award winning performer), Eva Gutowski (social media influencer), Gretchen Carlson (journalist), Heather Graham (Law & Order: True Crime), Jackie Cruz (Orange is the New Black), Jennifer Tilly (Chucky), Jeri Ryan (Star Trek Picard), Kimberly Williams-Paisley (Father of the Bride), Laura Marano (Austin & Ally and The Perfect Date), Loren Gray (singer), Lyric Ross (This Is Us), Madeline Stuart (world’s first supermodel with Down Syndrome), Marin Hinkle (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Nicky Hilton Rothschild (fashion designer), Paris Hilton (entrepreneur), Rachel Smith (Entertainment Tonight), Robin Givens (Riverdale and Ambitions), Roselyn Sánchez (Grand Hotel and Devious Maids), Sara Haines (Strahan, Sara and Keke), Sarah Chalke (Firefly Lane and Scrubs) and Sunny Hostin (The View).
