Top designers stuff their stockings for charity
Fashion online bible WWD enlisted top designers to design these gorgeous stockings and fill them up with their goodies, all to be auctioned off on ebay with proceeds donated to Citymeals-on-Wheels an organization which provides weekend and holiday meals to New York City’s homebound elderly. The auction is set to start tonight at 7pm.
Here’s a look at some of the stockings:
