Our series “How I’m Making It,” which profiles up-and-coming fashion pioneers as they climb the industry ranks, has inspired and informed you. Especially those of you looking to break into fashion.
So we’re bringing it to life. “How I’m Making It: What It Takes To Be Successful In Fashion” will take place on December 6, 2010 from 7pm-9pm in the Cantor Film Center at NYU.
Co-hosted by Fashionista and Farfetch.com, the panel includes over half a dozen of the industry’s most influential up-and-comers, including:
Michael Mente, Owner of Farfetch.com
Nellie Partow, Designer
Paul Birardi and Eddy Chai, Owners of Odin/Pas De Deux/Odin Fragrances
Rebecca Minkoff, Designer
Shipley & Halmos, Designers
Timo Weiland, Designers
Moderated by us–Fashionista editors Lauren Sherman and Leah Chernikoff–we’ll be asking these rising fashion stars how they broke into the business, and how they’re making it now. There will also be an audience Q&A, so we can pretty much guarantee your questions will be answered. (As long as it’s not, you know, super weird or inappropriate.)
Tickets to this one-time-only event are $24.99. Every guest will also receive a surprise goody bag. Sign up here now, as quantity is limited. We can’t wait to meet you and talk fashion! Here are the details again:
