Dressed to Kilt
Venue: The M2 Club, 530 West 28th Street
The Dressed to Kilt fashion show and New York's premier Scottish event will again kick-off Tartan Week on Monday night, April 5. Celebrities from both sides of the Atlantic will take to the catwalk for charity. As in previous years the funds raised by The Friends of Scotland will be given to returning veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan through the Wounded Warriors, Paralyzed Veterans of America and the Erskine Hospital in Scotland.

The theme of this year's show will be "Mad for Scotland". This celebrates the notion of people creatively reinventing themselves in this period of 'economic transition'. And there will be a shift of mindset which includes not following hard set 'fashion tribe' rules of yesteryear, and we will be celebrating the spirit of 'anything goes' .

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
