Last night, decked head to toe in Nicole Miller, Jasmine and I braced the cold weather and walked from The Bellevue to The Warwick Hotel at 17th and Locust. Taking place in the mezzanine of the hotel was an evening full of mingling, shopping, and dining sponsored by Jefferson Hospital; and I had the pleasure of attending.
As an intern, I like to experience all aspects of the industry, so I could not pass up the opportunity to volunteer at this event. I was unexpectedly surprised when my goal for the night was to model in Nicole Miller gowns and socialize with employees of Jefferson Hospital. However, the most exciting surprise of the night was modeling jewelry by A. Jacoby & Company. Custom designed with unique diamonds and stones, each piece was more gorgeous than the last. Although I can only hope to wear 13,000 dollars worth of jewels again, I still cherish the moment and hope for another exciting occasion. As the night progressed, I handed out Philly fashion postcards while people made their way to the auction table. Nicole Miller Philadelphia, as well as other local business, donated items to help fund research for Jefferson Hospital. It was simply a night to remember.
See people appreciating fashion while giving back to the community was truly humbling. I am constantly reming myself to appreciate the possibilities that co-op provide because there are constantly opportunities that can influence your future, and I am excited to continue my journey.
Allegra, that sounds like an incredible night! Having the opportunity to represent the Nicole Miller brand is a great responsibility and honor. I am looking forward to hearing more about your time on coop! :)
