SAL LAURETTA FOR MEN TO HOST 2nd ANNUAL "BEHIND THE SEAMS" FASHION SHOW TO BENEFIT EVA'S VILLAGE

Sal Lauretta for Men, one of the area’s most exclusive shops for menswear and custom tailoring, recently announced that it will be hosting the 2nd Annual “Behind the Seams” fashion show to benefit Eva’s Village, a non-profit comprehensive social service organization located in Paterson, NJ. The exclusive fashion show will highlight the new Spring/Summer lines currently on display at the store and feature Sal Lauretta’s #1 selling sportswear brand, The Robert Graham Collection.  The event will be held  on May 23rd from 6-10 pm at Bottagra Restaurant, located at 80 Wagaraw Road in Hawthorne. 
This event will help support the many anti-poverty programs at Eva’s Village, whose mission is to feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, treat the addicted, and provide medical care to the poor with respect for the human dignity of each individual.

“This is our second year hosting this fashion show to benefit the programs at Eva’s Village and last year we not only accomplished our goal but doubled it,” said Ralph Lauretta, owner of Sal Lauretta for Men.  “This year’s event will be much like the Bryant Park tents in NYC, complete with outdoor tent area, DJ, fashion kiosks and cocktails, swag bags, fine food and fare. Guests can expect to be greeted by a lavish buffet and cocktail reception inside the chic Bottagra Restaurant and will be escorted to an expansive tent with runway for the Robert Graham Fashion Show.  We look forward to a great night of fun, food and entertainment as well as raising money for a great cause,” he continued.
