Bras with Flair on the Square 2009
For the third annual event, decorated bras will fly high on Fountain Square to promote breast health. See how you can get involved with this unique and innovative way of finding a cure!

What better way to raise awareness about breast health than through the garments that support them? Cincy Chic, the leading online publication for women in Greater Cincinnati, is hosting its third annual Bras With Flair on the Square event on Fountain Square Sept. 30, 2009.

Cincy Chic is asking organizations and individuals in the Greater Cincinnati area to decorate bras to raise awareness and funds for breast health. Those wishing to donate a decorated bra can drop off items at any LA Fitness location in the Tri-State area before Sept. 25, 2009. Need help getting crafty? Come to our "Crafty Couture" build-a-bra event on Sept. 24 at Latitudes Cafe in Milford.

Cincy Chic will collect all donations and have them on display for the event on Fountain Square, Wednesday, Sept. 30 at the following times: 7-9 a.m., 11 a.m.-1 p.m. and 4-7 p.m. Attendees and passersby can visit the booths, sign up for a mammogram, get in the Lexus RiverCenter "Cash Cab" to win prizes and also cast their vote for their favorite bra. The top 10 favorite bras will be up for auction - to benefit Susan G Komen For the Cure - at the after party at the Hilton Netherland Plaza from 7-10 p.m.

From 12-1 p.m. on Sept. 30, a free bra fitting lunch 'n' learn sponsored by La Silhouette Lingerie will take place at the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber. E-mail RSVP@cincychic.com or call (513) 721-2445 to reserve your spot!

Later that afternoon, a fashion show featuring the latest fall trends from Alligator Purse and Cincy Designer Shoes will be on the Square at 6:30pm. Click here to purchase tickets to the fashion show!

But before these exciting events take place, be sure to send a "Ma'am-o-gram," a special e-card message, reminding your loved ones to schedule a mammogram. (Click here to see an example.)
