Last week we had a VERY VIP DESIGNER VISIT at The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising: Mark Badgley and James Mischka of Badgley Mischka made a very special visit to FIDM and my better half--and fellow FIDM Fashion Design Program Co-Chair, David Paul--we were there to be part of...
Badgley Mischka Event and Reception at FIDM, Los Angeles
Badgley Mischka were so WONDERFUL doing a special speaking engagement in front of a packed audience of our FIDM students (from many majors!), MC'ed by Stylist and FIDM Instructor Tod Hallman.

Afterward, we had a lovely lunch plus a VIP Tour of the campus by Barbara Bundy, FIDM Vice President of Education. James and Mark were so wonderful with the students, giving outstanding support, information and invaluable advice on the fashion industry. I also especially loved the "Fashion Gossip" they had from their 30+ years of experience in this crazy industry.
Here are photos from the visit:

#Throwback--It had been almost 15 YEARS since I first met Badgley Mischka, when I had been a constant/designer on Season 2 of "Project Runway" back in 2005, and Mark Badgley and James Mischka were the judges of the "Flower Power" Challenge, when we had to create designs using materials from a Flower/Plant Shop (lower photos)
