HALT! You are under arrest.
I am now officially a member of the FGI Fashion Police 2013!
If you are involved with fashion as a career or just love fashion and appreciate the art form, you need to attend Fashion Group International's (FGI) Fashion & Lifestyle Awards ‘Night of Stars’ Gala. It is the largest fundraiser of the year for FGI of Dallas and directly funds and supports Career Day. Held annually in April, Career Day provides over $40,000 in multiple scholarships to local fashion students.
What I love about this event - outside of supporting FGI - is that it is the BEST event of the year for people-watching. Why, you ask? Because in fashion, honey, they dress to impress. When you are dealing with the creme de la creme of the industry, I can assure you that they are going to pull out ALL the stops to make sure their look is flawless. To help raise money for the cause, FGI selects individuals each year to be on the Fashion Police squad. Our job is to raise awareness and funds (see below) for FGI through this event. Joining me on this year's unit is Scott Finfer, Dan Pritchett, Jennifer de Soccaraz-Flemming, Hamilton Sneed, Rachel Roberts, Tre Wilcox, Rhonda Sargent Chambers, Jim Duran, Crystal Wilson Herrera, Janet Fresquez and LeeAnne Locken.
Patron Magazine (run by the exquisite Terri Provencal) is the media partner for this event, so it fell to them to debut our glam squad in their August issue. Check out the awesome spread above... If you'd like to pick up a copy, you can find Patron at Barnes and Noble, Meadows Museum Gift Shop or subscribe online at http://patronmagazine.com/subscription.html
