Chic for Charity, held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel on November 16th, 2021, was the first fundraising event of IWC’s calendar year. It was a silent auction of new and gently worn, high-end, designer women's clothing. Previously loved clothing and special unique cultural items were donated by IWC members and friends of IWC. Many local designers participated by donating new items from their famous labels:
- Atelier Mia Kostov
- Bridal Boutique
- Dobrila Djokovic
- Etno Merza
- Fantasia di Yeya
- Igor Todorović
- Ivko
- Jkobald
- Kodžić
- Maja Pavicevic Atelier
- Marija Tarlac
- Maruška
- Nevena Nicetin
- Nonna Handmade
- The Manual Company
- Superstar Store (alli)
- Verica Rakocević
While the many buyers browsed the racks, the dance group Panna performed several Bollywood numbers. In the end, the event collected 310500 rsd. These proceeds will go into the IWC charity fund, to be distributed to Covid-19 relief related projects aimed at providing support and assistance to underserved populations in Serbia.
