The Fashion Center - Source Book

Did you know there was an entire source book/guide to the NYC Fashion District?  Neither did I!  In all my google searches I must have never clicked on the right link.  However, at last nights panel "Made in Midtown: The Garment District Today & Tomorrow" sponsored by The Municipal Art Society of New York and The Design Trust for Public Space, Barbara Blair Randall from The Fashion Center let us all in on a big secret that she wishes everyone knew about!

Also, I'm sorry to toot my own horn - but I got to meet Tim Gunn and Yeohlee Teng last night!  They were both so sweet and treated me like an old friend - lovely!  What kind people, thank you to Tim for moderating and to the panel for such interesting conversation!  I learned so much about the Garment District and how much work the next generation of designers has on their/our plate.  Here we go!
