Living Measure and KiRette Couture Present Threads for A Cause: A Fashion Show Benefiting GEMS

From Fashion Week to Fashion Avenue, NY has been called the fashion capital of the world. NY is also a leading entry, transit and destination point for human sex trafficking victims. On June 3, 2009, Living Measure and KiRette Couture will bring attention to this cause, through Threads For A Cause: A Fashion Show Benefiting GEMS. The event will be held from 6-9 p.m. at Boucarou lounge in the LES.

New York, NY, June 03, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Girls Educational and Mentoring Service (GEMS) was founded in 1999 by Rachel Lloyd, a young woman who had been sexually exploited as a teenager. GEMS has helped hundreds of young women and girls, ages 12-21, who have experienced commercial sexual exploitation and domestic trafficking to exit the commercial sex industry and to develop to their full potential. GEMS provides young women with empathetic, consistent support and viable opportunities for positive change.
