WEST PALM BEACH, FLA. (June 17, 2011) — More than 300
fashion and real estate enthusiasts gathered at
CityPalms in downtown West Palm Beach for an evening of
glamour featuring a Lilly Pulitzer swimwear fashion
show, synchronized swimming performances,
signature cocktails and bites in support of the 2012
Susan G. Komen South Florida Race for the Cure.
Guests included Komen supporters Liz
DeWoody, Kristy and Grier Pressly, Liz and Mark Yavinsky,
Valentine Joseph, Veronica Menella, Melissa McKinlay,
Betsy Golub and Melinda Santer.
Set amidst the poolside rustling palms on the rooftop
Palm Court Club at City Palms, the event showcased a
special limited-time incentive for homebuyers, resulting
in numerous sales for the
McWilliams|Ballard sales and marketing group, a portion
of proceeds benefiting the 2012 Susan G. Komen South
Florida Race for the Cure. “We were thrilled with the
turnout of guests excited about fashion and real estate
in downtown West Palm Beach,” said Niki Piersall,
director, McWilliams|Ballard. “This was one of the most
vibrant events held to date in the luxurious Palm Court
Club, and we can’t wait to top it all with our next
soiree!”
Produced by the It! Girls of It! Weddings & Events in
Palm Beach, the event sizzled as Miami’s hottest fashion
models donned the latest from Lilly Pulitzer’s Summer
2011 swimwear line.
Cocktails flowed as DJ Adam Lipson spun the latest club
tunes and synchronized swimming performances by the Palm
Beach Coralytes had the poolside crowd cheering in
amazement.
Just steps from the renowned shopping and
dining of CityPlace, City Palms is uniquely positioned
at 480 Hibiscus Street to offer both location and
