Rebecca Taylor will donate 50 percent associated with proceeds from a limited-edition hot pink chiffon top ($225) to the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation, which is dedicated to increasing awareness and funding research aimed at an aggressive subtype of breast cancer that most often affects younger women, females with a BRCA mutation and African-Americans. At 34 Gansevoort Street.

Tommy Hilfiger designed a smart navy-blue handbag along with tan accents and red piping for Breast Wellness International, and $100 from the sale of each purse ($299) will go to the Fund for Living, an initiative which assists women with breast cancer by covering costs not really commonly taken care of by health insurance programs, like transportation in order to medical appointments or child care during treatment. In 681 Fifth Avenue.
