Stuart Weitzman — Sole Mates

04/16/2014

Approximately 50 dedicated, high fashion shoppers journeyed to the Stuart Weitzman store in the Northbrook Court shopping mall, Northbrook, Ill., to sip wine, enjoy hors d’oeuvres and purchase shoes, handbags and accessories with a portion of sales going to support the JWS Ovarian Cancer Fund. According to Store Manager Melissa Mueller, Jane Weitzman, wife of company founder Stuart Weitzman, is a philanthropist who has long supported research and

awareness programs for breast and ovarian cancer. Partnering with the JWS Ovarian Cancer Fund to help raise awareness about the disease was a natural, Mueller said. The event, held on April 16, 2014, was sponsored by Make It Better, a north suburban Chicago magazine and communications company.
