On Wednesday, Buckhead was in a New York state of mind when the CFDA Fashion Incubator Designer Showcase came to Atlanta. W Atlanta –Buckhead was proud to welcome four of CFDA's newest rising star designers: Burkman Brothers, Emanuela Duca, Daniel Vosovic and WHIT. This event was also the official launch of the national partnership between W Hotels Worldwide + the Council of Fashion Designers of America.
The event began with an exclusive meet-and-mentor breakfast with CFDA representatives, designers and SCAD students. Following the breakfast, the designers hosted a private luncheon and fashion show hosted by Atlanta's fashion elite. To finish off the full-day of events, the designers joined media and local taste-makers on the rooftop at Whiskey Blue to celebrate and showcase their latest collections.
