JK Rowling looks Effortlessly Chic in Flattering Grey Dress

JK Rowling PicsShe only steps out to make appearances for worthy causes. And JK Rowling did just that when she attended a lighting ceremony held at the Empire State Building in New York on Thursday morning.

The Harry Potter author cut a stylish figure in grey ensemble as she helped to mark the launch of her non-profit children’s organization, Lumos. The 49-year-old looked chic in long-sleeved grey maxi dress which she teamed with snakeskin heels.

Lumos is the charitable extension of the Harry Potter franchise that made Ms Rowling’s fortune and is a nod to the spell used to generate light at the end of the young wizard’s wand. It was founded nearly a decade ago after Ms Rowling saw a harrowing picture in a newspaper of a caged child and an article about disabled children in the Czech Republic being restrained in beds.

The next day she started the process that led to her setting up Lumos, which works in countries such as the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Moldova and Ukraine. Ms Rowling funds the running costs, meaning all donations are spent on the charity’s work – with its stated aim of ending the practice of institutionalising children in orphanages worldwide by 2050.
