THE EVENT: Marymount University’s Fashion Design and Fashion
Merchandising program hit the runway for the 17th annual Portfolio in
Motion fashion show – the penultimate academic project for graduates.
Every aspect, including jury-selected student designs, talent casting and
show production, refl ects the students’ academic and creative eff orts. If
that wasn’t stressful enough, fashion icon Michael Kors and business leader
Sheila Johnson were on hand to critique their work. The catwalk showcase
was the crown jewel in a weekend-long fashion fest that included a Friday
luncheon where Kors received the Designer of the Year Award. THE SCENE: 600 style-philes, co-eds, friends and family members scouted
for the “next big thing.” THE GUESTS: LuAnn Bennett , Jeannemarie
Devolites Davis, Jackie Duberstein, Michael Kors CEO John Idol and
Communications Director Billy Daley.
