Fashion is forever moving forward, and the graduating class of Saks' inaugural emerging designer accelerator program could not be a more brilliant indication of where the industry is headed.
This past Wednesday evening, Saks CEO Marc Metrick hosted an intimate cocktail soirée at L’Avenue at Saks to celebrate the success The New Wave at Saks, a collection of nine talented brands who have spent the past year honing their skills with the luxury retailer's support.
Watch out world - Alejandra Alonso Rojas, Ashya, A.W.A.K.E. Mode, BruceGlen, Busayo, Kimberly Goldson, LaQuan Smith and Reese Cooper are now officially Saks certified designers!
