Neiman Marcus Celebrates Black History Month
American integrated luxury fashion retailer Neiman Marcus Atlanta, presented homage to The Designer Collective for Black History Month Panel Discussion moderated by Dr. Courtney A. Hammonds, The Dean of Fashion, alongside Dr. Dionne Boyd and an extraordinary group of innovative Black fashion designers here to vanquish the status quo of luxury fashion. Sponsored by Moët Hennessy and La Fête du Rosé, elegance, sophistication, and grandeur were pillars lead the night, unapologetically displayed for all within eyeshot to marvel in during the star studded event, held on February 23, 2023, at NM Lenox Square. As the foundation of what NM Group stands for high end luxury fashion was front and center, with woven fabrics draped over shoulders, champagne flutes extended skyward and prominent artworks lining the aisles, the scent of the night was expensive colognes and perfumes, wafts of Cognac, and sophistication infused with stains of triumph and confidence never to be wiped off.
“The Dean of Fashion” taught a lesson plan in steadfastness, perseverance, and moxie not soon to be forgotten by any well dressed patron in attendance nor onlooker seeking the final piece to complete their ensemble for the night. Dr. Cah’ as he is referred to by his peers, invoked emotion from eyes behind shades with his thought provoking questions to panel members, melodic tone and transparency, not often seen by leaders of this generation. Needless to say this event was successful in changing the status quo in a way only possible in “the City to Fly to Hate” A-T-L-A-N-T-A
