DIFFA Dallas announced on Thurdsay that the Louis L. Borick Foundation House of DIFFA: Dreamstate will take place on Saturday, May 3 at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel. The event features fashion, performances and philanthropy. With this year’s theme, DIFFA “invites guests into a surreal realm where the power of dreams fuels transformation and fantasy gives way to fearless impact.”

From DIFFA Dallas:

The House of DIFFA runway has long been a stage for fashion that stuns, provokes, and redefines the norm. This year’s designs will be otherworldly—equal parts mesmerizing, mysterious, and thought-provoking.

From the glamorous and ethereal to the eerie and unexpected, Dreamstate will embrace the full spectrum of fantasy. Join DIFFA Dallas as they embrace the dreams, defy the nightmares, and enter the Dreamstate.

“House of DIFFA has a 33-year legacy of showcasing incredible talent and fashion, featuring renowned designers, visionary creators, and unforgettable entertainment,” Payton Martin, co-chair of House of DIFFA: Dreamstate said in today’s press release. “It’s not your typical fundraising dinner.”

Martin continued, “House of DIFFA isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s a fully immersive experience that transports guests into another world. From the moment you walk in, you’re part of something bigger—something that’s bold, breathtaking, and incredibly impactful.”

Attendees will be able to bid on custom, one-of-a-kind jackets from local and global designers created exclusively for DIFFA Dallas. The live and silent auctions will feature luxury fashion, jewelry, artwork and exclusive travel experiences—with proceeds benefiting HIV/AIDS service organizations across North Texas.

DIFFA Dallas provides funding to HIV/AIDS service efforts that is unrestricted and supports initiatives addressing homelessness, hunger, mental health and other social issues.

“DIFFA’s impact is undeniable. Every dollar raised goes directly to helping people in need, and it’s incredible to see how far those dollars stretch,” House of DIFFA: Dreamstate co-chair Jacon Samson stated. “This event isn’t just about raising money—it’s about building a future where healthcare, housing, and support systems are accessible to all.”
