On Tuesday, April 1, 2025, The Glasshouse in New York City will host an elegant evening that unites luminaries from the fashion, business, and education sectors to honor Dr. Joyce F. Brown’s transformative leadership at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT). The 27th Annual FIT Gala will celebrate Dr. Brown’s remarkable contributions to the fashion industry and education. Her visionary approach has redefined industry standards, empowered countless students, and solidified FIT’s legacy at the intersection of creativity, technology, and business.
For those New Yorkers who get out and about, Joyce is a familiar face. Her charitable contributions to the city are significant and enumerable. She is known for her elegance, intelligence and grace. We salute and thank her for her intense dedication to the fashion life of the city.
For what to wear to a tribute to fashion and philanthropy, we shopped on line for Michael Kors, a long time supporter of the organization and a savvy Host of the evening. Whether shopping Michel Kors Collection or the more accessibly priced Michael Michael Kors, the iconic brand’s lifework of flattering women shines through with lace, embellished fabrics and a metallic moire, many of which are on sale. My fave is the Collection’s updated classic Little Black Dress, with its expertly crafted neckline and tapered lines – it is an investment in the chicest NYC glamour.
Welcome to a style-star studded event as the Presenters line up for an evening that celebrates the fashion industry in New York City and all of those who have come before. Fashion Institute of Technology is center stage to insure our leaders of the future.
