Breast Cancer Fund Raiser to benefit Norwalk Hospitals Smilow Center


“ Once again, excitement awaits at Helen Ainson Darien. This October marks the 5th year that this well established store has hosted a Breast Cancer Fundraiser.  So, note your calendars for Thursday evening, October 4th because Rickie Freeman, the world renowned designer for Teri Jon will be making a rare personal appearance. 


For a $20 donation at the door, you will have a chance to
rub elbows with the celebrated designer, who has dressed the likes of Meryl Streep, Jennifer Hudson, Oprah and Darien’s own, Chloe Sevigny. 


Rickie came to the U.S. to study fashion design as a
teenager and went on to start the Teri Jon label in 1984.  She has since built the business to become one of America’s small business success stories—even being featured on CNN as such.

win a new outfit—all to the benefit of a good cause!!  Proceeds will go to benefit Norwalk Hospital’s Smilow Family Breast Health Center. “
