March 12th, Denver, CO Brooks LTD will showcase their new line at the Evening of Caring Gala benefitting Sue Miller – Day of Caring, a breast cancer organization.
A breast cancer survivor since 1990, Brooks has become more empathetic and understanding of women’s needs. Since her diagnosis, she has been featured multiple times in the Day of Caring events.
Brooks Ltd was founded in 1976, brooks fashions have been a staple in the Colorado community as well as selling designs to Saks Fifth Avenue and others. Since 2002, Brooks has served clients privately in her atelier in LoDo.
Designs featured in the Evening of Caring showcase the latest trends in fashion while highlighting the shape and character of each survivor model. “It is important for me to continue working with breast cancer survivors because I want them to feel beautiful and special,” Brooks said. “Giving these women the opportunity to have a custom made piece can be life changing. The confidence that you see in their faces on the runway is indescribable. It makes it worth it.”

Models include well-known Denver survivors including, Ellen Beller, Jan Gillam, Murphy Huston, Rachel Rabinovich, Tiffany Reed, Dr. Joyce Sedlacek, Paula Ullman, and Lou Ann Van Daele to name a few.
