One of the most experienced and stylish guys in the fashion industry joined Fashion PR class at SMU on Tuesday, Oct. 28. Chuck Steelman is the Corporate Manager of Special Events at Neiman Marcus and the Regional Director of FGI Dallas.
The 13 girls in the class got the rare opportunity to explore the career path of a fashion industry professional. Beginning with his experience on a department store teen board (like I did at Nordstrom!) to tons of pictures of designers he's worked with, Chuck has done it all. He's so good at creating legendary NM events to give customers special, once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
For someone as busy and influential as Chuck, he was so cool to take the time to talk about his job and allow us to ask questions... lots of questions! The fashion industry hopefuls - everyone - in the room were eager to hear what he had to say.
Rosanne Hart (Professor Hart) has consistently impressed me with the speakers she's brought in to speak to the class. It's such a privilege to have the opportunity to hear from some of the best in the business. Previous Speakers include Galleria Dallas stylist Holly Quartaro and Power PR CEO Amy Power. Lisa Petty is scheduled to share her fashion industry insights on Dec. 2!
Neiman Marcus Northpark was swarming with stylistas today, October 8, to meet Tory Burch on her trip to Dallas. This lady needs no introduction. Her personal appearance event has been on every fashion fanatics' agenda for weeks. Here in Dallas, the Tory trend started with the famous Reva flats and has since become an empire of "double-T" logo fashions. In fact, my favorite pair of heels are Tory's.
Tory was just as lovely as her iconic shoes, purses, and clothes. She even signed personalized autographs and got pictures with fans. Burch appears petite and teeny in photos, and even more so in person. The latest Tory Burch collection at Neiman Marcus has lots of fall must-haves. Shop some of my favorite Tory Burch picks at the end of this post.
Thank you to Neiman Marcus and Fashion Group International of Dallas for hosting Tory Burch. And a special thank you to Chuck Steelman and Rosanne Hart for making the experience so wonderful.
