FashionFact

Dear readers,

Since Mercedes-Benz starts in only two days (yay!), I thought I would share a Fashion Industry fact with you darlings. Have any of you ever once thought “who invented New York Fashion Week”? I know I certainly have! Well my dears, the answer is right here! The driving force behind the inspiring event known to many as New York Fashion Week, is none other than the lovely Fern Mallis. Currently the Executive Director of IMG Models, Fern is inspiring because of the single reason that she created this opportunity for multitudes of designers to display their work during a set week, making their beautiful work more widely available, and more widely acknowledged (by fashion insiders, of course!). As well as allowing the opportunity for creative visionaries to display their work, Fern’s implementation of New York Fashion week has seen the formation of many jobs in the fashion industry (which creates millions of dollars each year. Genious idea? I would say so.
