Following another successful Jes Foord Foundation Ball, Jess has put her gorgeous dress, designed by Karen Monk Klijnstra, up for auction to raise funds for her charity fund.

The dress has evolved on its journey and has some amazing people involved as well. Karen Monk Klijnstra was involved with making an outfit for Jes from the beginning, then, when purchasing the fabric at Fabric and Bridal World (Musgrave), Karen was told that the staff had met Jes that morning, they were blown away by her presence and offered to sponsor most of the fabric.
Karen’s business partner in WOW Bags also approached her to sponsor the shortfall of fabric in order to create bespoke Jes Foord WOW Bags for their collection.
The dress will be auctioned at www.facebook.com/jesfoordsa and www.jff.org.za, as well as by e-mail bid to admin@jff.org.za
