CFDA Connects

One-on-One With Industry Leaders from The Council of Fashion Designers of America

We want this experience to be more than photo-ops and inspirational talks,  which are all great,  However, at this  point of the (DE-FI) Incubator, the designers are almost a year in, a  solid foundation has been laid, and they are ready to hit the ground  running and build on that foundation.   We want the designers in our incubator to have dedicated time just for them with the leaders, reps,  and educators from the CFDA to absorb knowledge, gain wisdom, receive honest feedback,  and clear direction on next steps.  None of which can be  gained in a general open to the public Guest Speaker Series  setting...BTW we'll have a Guest Speaker Series for the public too  during (DE-FI) Fashion Week, we just want to make sure our designers are  taken care of and cracks are sealed ahead of Ohio Market Week.  Additional details are coming soon.
