To drum up excitement about Fashion Forward, a fund-raiser that celebrates the fashion industry’s longstanding commitment to fighting the HIV/AIDS epidemic event, a public service announcement began airing this week on ABC. The gender-bending spots (which include 5-, 15- and 30-second versions) feature 11 well-known faces, including Jenny Shimizu, in the modeling world and were shot by Jonathan Turner and produced by Jason Farrer. The diversity of the casting was intended to showcase the social complexities and range of the LGBT community.
The event takes place Nov. 17 at the Metropolitan Pavilion and is sponsored by the Bank of America.
