The penthouse at the Burroughs Building staged a stylish showcase last night of fabulous frocks donated for silent auction by designers and local celebrities. At The Frocktail Party, bartenders shook up blue cosmos while well-dressed guests bid on dream dresses by designers like Dolce and Gabbana, Greta Constantine, Betsey Johnson, and David Dixon. The flapper-style gown above was donated by Leah Miller, who wore the dress on So You Think You Can Dance. All proceeds went to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.


ET Canada's Cheryl Hickey donated the gorgeous black lace Mandalay halter number. Sushi rolls and salmon lollipops kept the crowd from getting too tipsy on cocktails and after the bidding war ended, a DJ spun beats by Michael Jackson and Prince, keeping the "well-heeled" crowd moving.



Sexy ladies lit up the dance floor (left), and handbag designer Brook Alviano rocked a red dress which she constructed completely from vintage fabric. Ali Reid, in an art deco-inspired shimmer dress, helped organize the event.


Michelle Reagan and the Style Box's Gail McInnes looked sharp (left), while the F-List's resident style maven, Leesa Butler, looked fashionably fabulous as usual;


The Beauty Boutique pampered with hair and cosmetics makeovers (one guest averted an eyelash emergency); Peach Berserk founder and designer, Kingi Carpenter, showcased her own designs on herself and a friend. The red taffeta explosion with sheer sleeves and full skirt stood out like a pretty confection. Dashing Dev, wearing a chainmail veil, and beautiful Belinda, founding photog of Kamshuka (second from left), brought amazing attitude to the event.



Doesn't everyone look amazing?!
I love that black lace halter.
