NEW YORK, NY – February X, 2024 – Wacoal, the nation's leading designer intimate apparel brand, celebrates 25 years of partnership with Susan G. Komen®, the world’s leading breast cancer organization. Pop icon Taylor Dayne will be the spokesperson for the Fit for the Cure® campaign to support the fight against breast cancer for a second season.
“More than two decades ago, we began our partnership with Susan G. Komen®, and we are proud of how it has flourished over time. We are excited to have pop icon Taylor Dayne as our spokesperson for Fit for the Cure®. As a colon cancer survivor, Dayne will use her platform to promote the importance of early detection and to share hope and support with those affected by breast cancer," says Mitch Kauffman, President and CEO of Wacoal.
Renowned for her hit singles like "Tell It To My Heart," "Love Will Lead You Back," and most recently, her chart-topping remix with DJ trio Cash Cash, Taylor Dayne is a strong voice for cancer awareness and early detection. She will make a special appearance at the Dillard’s in Stony Point Fashion Park in Richmond, Virginia on Wednesday, March 13. She will be signing autographs and taking photographs from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m.
"I'm really excited to be the spokesperson for Wacoal's Fit for the Cure® program for a second season. I was so inspired by the women I met at Fit for the Cure® events, and I'm looking forward to having an even greater impact in the fight against breast cancer this spring," says Taylor Dayne.
Wacoal will donate $5 for every person who receives a complimentary bra fitting and purchases a regular-price Wacoal or b.tempt'd bra at a Fit for the Cure® event. Over one million women have received bra fittings at Fit for the Cure® events.
Wacoal has donated over $6 million to Komen. One hundred percent of these funds go to Komen's direct patient support services, including their Patient Care Center, which provides emotional support through the free Breast Care Helpline, access to breast health services, financial assistance, information about clinical trials, breast health and breast cancer education, and more.
