Chelsea Clinton Attends Fashion Show Fundraiser in Tribeca Thrown by Anna Wintour and Huma Abedin

TRIBECA, NY — Vogue editor Anna Wintour and Huma Abedin, vice chairwoman of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, co-hosted a fashion show and rooftop party Tuesday night at Spring Studios in Tribeca. The event was a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential effort under the Hillary Victory Fund umbrella.

The “Made for History Fashion Show & Rooftop Party” featured special guest Chelsea Clinton and a special performance by Demi Lovato.

Lovato tweeted about meeting Chelsea Clinton, who thanked the singer for her work with mental health initiatives.

The event kicked off New York Fashion Week, which begins Wednesday at 9 a.m. with shows from Adeam, Cinq á Sept and Jeffrey Dodd. Those interested in New York Fashion Week can follow along with a live stream of various runway shows. New York Fashion Week lasts through Sept. 15. Check out the full schedule of New York Fashion Week events here.

Clinton has a sizable lead in New York state with the most recent Real Clear Politics New York poll from Aug. 30 putting the Democrat ahead in the presidential race with 52.3 percent support versus 33 percent for Republican nominee Donald Trump. Both candidates carried the state in their respective primaries.

Event co-host Abedin announced last week that she was leaving her husband Anthony Weiner following his most recent texting scandal. Abedin has a long history of working with Clinton. She was previously an assistant during Clinton's 2008 run for president and served as the Secretary of State's deputy chief of staff from 2009 to 2013, working under Clinton.

Lovato was in the news in late August for artistic rather than personal reasons: The indie rock band Sleigh Bells filed a lawsuit claiming that Lovato's 2015 hit "Stars" sampled their 2010 song "Infinity Guitars" without permission, according to Pitchfork.
