Breast cancer survivors to catwalk with Macy's fashion

A memorable and inspiring day of empowerment is anticipated as Loma Linda University Health System Department of Plastic Surgery hosts the 5th annual “The Pink Runway” Breast Cancer Reconstruction Seminar and Fashion Show on Sept. 29.

“The Pink Runway” will feature breast cancer survivors who received post-mastectomy reconstruction surgery as models showcasing the latest fashions from Macy’s. This year’s event, sponsored by K-FROG music radio station, also features a new format, with informative and exciting seminars preceding the fashion show.

"We have planned a very special program for this fifth edition of The Pink Runway combining an educational program with stellar presenters with our amazing fashion show supporting breast cancer awareness,” said Dr. Subhas Gupta, chairman of Loma Linda University Health System Department of Plastic Surgery.

“We are expecting a huge turnout from the Inland Empire to support our breast reconstruction campaign,” he said.

K-FROG personality Heather Froglear will host the fashion show, which will feature special appearances by Riverside Mayor Rusty Bailey, and Tina Sugandh and Tarz Ludwigsen, the stars of the Bravo TV series “Newlyweds.”
