Celebs' red dresses good for the heart

Laura Bush hosts the Red Dress Collection fashion show, where celebrities like Heidi Klum and Molly Sims strutted their stuff to raise awareness of heart disease in women.

Soul singer Joss Stone was among the celebrities who modeled for the Heart Truth Red Dress Collection fashion show in New York.

The show pairs celebrities, such as Sara Ramirez of 'Grey's Anatomy,' with top designers to create one-of-a-kind red dresses.

Jenna Fischer of 'The Office' models one of the creations. In 2002, the Heart Truth introduced the red dress as the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness.

'Las Vegas' star Molly Sims shows off the back of her dress, with a little shoulder thrown in for good measure.

Camryn Manheim looks lovely in a satin gown by Ali Rahimi.

'Entertainment Tonight's' Maria Menounos is more used to asking questions on the red carpet than walking it, but she adjusted.

Heidi Klum has a leg up on her peers, what with being a professional model and all.

Like most of America, Mary Lynn Rajskub wants the writers' strike to end so '24' will return. The actress plays Chloe.

Lisa Rinna shows off her Michael Kors creation. With a body like that, it's easy to see why Turtle and Drama fought for her attention on 'Entourage.'

Ana Ortiz of 'Ugly Betty.' Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of Latinas in the United States.

Allison Janney was one of the models. Maybe the former 'West Wing' star has an in with the first lady.

On to the runway. Molly Sims couldn't help but laugh as she checked out what Lisa Rinna was up to.

Lisa Rinna makes the fringe on her dress really move as she struts down the catwalk. It seems all those hours of practice for 'Dancing With the Stars' really paid off.

Cheryl Hines shows off the comedic timing she's honed on 'Curb Your Enthusiasm.'

Rita Moreno makes a grand entrance in a dress reminiscent of something from 'Hello, Dolly!'

First lady Laura Bush and daughter Barbara had seats on the front row. Those are one of the perks you get when you're the ambassador for the Heart Truth campaign.

Heidi Klum initially wanted something less skimpy, but the 'Project Runway' host worked the two-layer slip dress by Marc Jacobs.

The highlight of the fashion show was a performance of 'New York, New York' by Liza Minnelli.

First Lady Laura, Liza Minnelli and the celebrity models take their bows.
