Go Red For Women NYFW Online Live Stream: Where To Watch American Heart Association’s Cat Walk At Mercedez-Benz Fashion Week

The Go Red For Women Red Dress Collection presented by Macy's will be back at the tents at Lincoln Center on Thursday, February 12th at 8 p.m. to raise awareness for heart disease nationwide. The livestream begins at 8 p.m. with a pre-show hosted by actress, singer and songwriter, Laura Bell Bundy. Emmy Award-winner Rosie O'Donnell will open this year's show that is slated to feature more than 20 celebrity walkers and a performance by American girl group Fifth Harmony.Despite the publically held misconception, heart disease is not just a man's disease. In fact, 1 in 3 American women die from heart disease and stroke. Celebrities such as Star Jones and Laura Bell Bundy – both heart disease survivors – are helping to break the barriers on gender disparities, reframing this serious health issue. Many of the celebrity walkers are also breaking barriers in their own industries: Laverne Cox is the first openly transgender person to be nominated for an Emmy in an acting category, Thalia is one of the best-selling Latina artists of all time and Bethany Mota is one of the most popular YouTube celebrities.

The Go Red For Women Red Dress Collection also breaks traditional fashion week barriers by showcasing up-and-coming designers who would not normally have the opportunity share their designs on the runway. This year, the show will feature three looks from designers in the not-for-profit, independently run Fashion Incubator Programs housed at Macy's in Chicago, San Francisco and Philadelphia: Agnes Hamerlik, Stephanie Bodnar and Jovan O'Connor. Even some more well-known designers such as Tamara Mellon have never showcased their collection during New York Fashion Week, and for this cause, she is custom-making a dress for Alexa Ray Joel, who lost her grandmother to heart disease.

The American Heart Association's Go Red For Women movement, known for the iconic red dress symbolizing the continued fight against the No. 1 killer of women, and its national sponsor Macy's, are teaming up with 20 female celebrities including, Alexa Ray Joel (musician/model), Barbara Eden (I Dream of Jeannie), Bethany Mota (social media star/model), Carla Hall (The Chew), Catt Sadler (E! News), Ciara (musician), Dascha Polanco (Orange Is The New Black), Donna Mills (Knots Landing), Hoda Kotb (TODAY), Irina Pantaeva (supermodel), Jennette McCurdy (Nickelodeon's iCarly), Kristin Cavallari (The Hills), Laverne Cox (Orange Is The New Black), Star Jones (TV personality), Thalia (Latin pop star), Tracy Anderson (celebrity trainer), and Zendaya (singer and Shake It Up actress). These celebrities will wear red dresses from notable designers including Oscar de la Renta, Donna Karan, Monique Lhuillier, and Carmen Marc Valvo.To view, the Go Red For Women Red Dress Collection Livestream, go to GoRedForWomen.org/RedDressCollection.
