The Neiman Marcus professionals are internationally renowned for being on the forefront of fashion. Whether it’s couture ball gowns, accessories du jour or assembling a total look complete with the right “Wow!” factor, Dallasites have been at Ground Zero for fashion thanks to these knowledgeable folks.
How about tapping into that treasure trove of talent for the upcoming season? The temperature is starting to edge downward, so the thoughts of cashmere sweaters, gloves and boots are starting to pop up in minds and discussions. But last year’s ensemble seems….well, so yesterday. What’s a girl to do?
The United Way of Metropolitan Dallas and NM NorthPark, where NM VP/GM Malcolm Reuben rules, have come up with the answer and it won’t cost a mortgage payment!
It’s Fall Into Fashion on Wednesday, November 5. The main event including a runway fashion show starts on the third level at 6:30 p.m. According to organizers, guests “will learn from the style experts at Neiman Marcus about the latest fall must-have’s.” Plus there will be couture cocktails, heavy hors d’oeuvres and DJ Blake Ward in charge of the sounds of the night.
There is a problem, though. The tickets have been flying out the door, so there aren’t many left. The reason? They’re only $25 per person. Yup, you read it. $25! Heck, it costs more to go to a movie and get a box of popcorn and soft drink.
Oh, and the organizers would appreciate the donation of gently experienced “career clothes, accessories and shoes to donate to United Way’s programs supporting victims of domestic violence.”
So, have an intervention with the clothes. Pick out the ones that need to go and take them to Fall into Fashion. You’ll probably find their replacements pretty darn quick.
