When Toni Muñoz-Hunt walks into a room — 6-feet-something in sky-high Jimmy Choos, chestnut mane flowing — all heads turn. This isn’t a recent phenomenon. Muñoz-Hunt has been a professional model for more than two decades, walking countless catwalks, gracing many a magazine cover (including ours) and serving as the face for many well-known brands.

At the Dallas Country Club it was the very real issue of suicide that attracted nearly 250 guests for a seated dinner on Friday, March 20. The occasion was Fashion Stars for a Cause with its runway presentation of the 2015 Fashion Stars (Jennifer de Socarraz-Fleming, Jamie Fowler, Leah Frazier, Rebecca Harper Hallam, Caroline Harrison, Naila Malik, Dawn Mellon, Charmaine Marshall, Jessi Moreau, Dawn Neufeld, Melissa Rountree and Cathy Williamson), as well as the debut of the Fashion Stars Magazine.

When Toni Munoz-Hunt was tapped as a 2013-2014 Fashion Star, she began a journey far longer and more beautiful than any catwalk she has stepped on to.

At the recent—and sold-out—Fashion Stars for a Cause, stylish philanthropists descended on Dallas Country Club to raise funds for the Suicide and Crisis Center of North Texas. Event chairman Yvonne Crum and center executive director Margie Wright served as proud hostesses during the event that bravely discusses the often-taboo subject.

After the death of her oldest son years ago, event founder and gala chair Yvonne Crum, sought a way to bring attention and understanding to the usually taboo subject of suicide. Through the Fashion Stars For A Cause program (formerly known as Fresh Faces of Fashion), she paired the unlikely topics of suicide and fashion together with funds benefiting the North Texas Suicide and Crisis Center. The result of her efforts has been to raise over $1 million dollars over the past 8+ years. On Friday, March 20 supporters of this cause gathered at the Dallas Country Club for the 2nd Annual Fashion Stars For A Cause gala.

Nearly a "dazzling dozen of Dallas’ most fashion-savvy women" walked the runway at Dallas Country Club on Friday night as part of the Fashion Stars for a Cause event presented by the Suicide & Crisis Center of North Texas. Founded eight years ago by Yvonne Crum in conjunction with SCC Executive Director Margie Wright, the annual runway fashion show is designed to raise funds for the Center’s much needed programs such as the Survivors of Suicide and Teens Can Survive initiatives which help those in crisis find hope for the future.

One in four women will experience domestic violence during her lifetime and more than 3 million children witness domestic violence in their homes every year. The stats are overwhelming, which is why Hope House serves as a safe haven for prevention, education and support for thousands of people traumatized by domestic violence every year. On Wednesday, the Chiefs Women’s Organization (CWO) visited the women and children at Hope House to host a holiday party for those currently residing in the shelter.

You might have heard over the weekend that AdvoCare launched their brand new skin care line called Supplement Your Skin (SYS), and I am so honored to have been named the spokeswoman for this advancement in skin care.

Growing up, Sundays were less about Mass and more about spending time with Grandma, and if I made it to church early enough, I’d help her ready Padre’s robe and the small offering baskets lined with dark velvet. María Refugio Enriquez Cruz Muñoz never missed Mass, and when Padre wasn’t at church, he even frequented the house to get her advice on his lectures, and…well…there was always a home cooked meal—chile Colorado, mole, rellenos, menudo, and posole. Something wonderful always simmered on the stove.

Together they made it a special night benefiting theSuicide and Crisis Center of North Texas, an organization near and dear to Crum’s heart.
