This past weekend, I had the honor of visiting the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising/FIDM Orange County campus for their fab FIDM Open House. The FIDM Open House is a chance for anyone interested in a career in anything from fashion design/styling/interior design and much, much more to check out the FIDM OC campus, instructors and alumni.

Besides the fact that the FIDM OC campus is perfectly situated in the heart of Southern California's Activewear fashion capital, it is also a stones throw from the headquarters of the iconic St. John fashion brand and the campus itself is designed like an artists' loft, giving the immediate sensation that you are in a creative environment. The FIDM OC campus currently also has a wonderful display of the FIDM "Chairing Styles" designs--a collaboration between the Fashion, Interior and Textile Design students:

As part of the FIDM OC 2016 Open House, I gave a very special "Inspirational lecture" discussing why I chose to attend FIDM plus much, much more. I even brought two of my very special high-end NIKOLAKI evening gowns...

NICK APPEARANCES....FIDM San Diego Open House January 2016--Photo Recap!




Open House Fun: Nick Verreos at the January 2016 FIDM San Diego Open House



This past weekend, I had the honor of making an "appearance" at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising/FIDM San Diego Campus, for their Open House. As the College's Official Spokesperson, I travel to all of the school's campuses from time to time, doing special visits and giving special lectures; this was one such occasion.

The FIDM Open House is a way for high school (as well as post-graduate) students thinking about going into the fashion industry to get a chance to meet Alumni, Instructors, Graduates, and check out the campuses of course. This is always one of my favorite parts of being a FIDM Spokesperson; I get to meet-and-greet all the people with the same "Passion For Fashion" that I have.



Here is my BLOG PHOTO RECAP of last Saturday's fun day:

This past weekend, I had the honor--as the Official Spokesperson of FIDM--of MC'ing the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising/FIDM Fall 2015 Open House. The FIDM Open House is a way for anyone interested in attending FIDM to visit the college and meet instructors, alumni, check out the campus and generally, get to know the campus. As part of this Open House experience, I hosted an Alumni Panel Discussion with FIDM graduates...

In addition to the Alumni Panel Discussion, I also hosted the Dad Catwalk Contest--I picked several dads from the audience (they had no idea what I was I picking them for), and then I told them about the Runway Contest. Needless to say, they were good sports...

Work It:  Nick Verreos doing the Runway---FIDM Los Angeles Fall 2012 Open House



This past weekend, I had the pleasure of MC'ing the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising/FIDM Fall 2012 Open House, held at the Downtown LA campus of FIDM, my alma mater and the fashion college I am the Official Spokesperson of.





It was a rainy Saturday morning/early afternoon in LA (I know! Rain in Los Angeles? What is going on??!!) but that did not keep a TON (about 800 people!) from attending this great event. I was scheduled to host two sessions of fun panel discussion with other FIDM Alumni (graduates of the college).





The audiences at these panel discussions are usually high school students--mainly juniors and seniors--as well as post-grad attendees interested in a career on Fashion Design, Textile Design, Graphic Design, Apparel Manufacturing, Product Development, Visual Merchandising, and all the other related majors FIDM has to offer.



Here are some photos from the FIDM LA Fall 2012 Open House:

Finally, it was time for the Alumni Panel Discussion which I was MC'ing. The FIDM Alumni panel included Cynthia Rodriguez, Global Merchandising Manager at "Too Faced Cosmetics"; Chase Vance, a former student of mine who is currently in the IMPD/International Manufacturing and Product Development program; Meagan Randolph, who is an Allocator in the Footwear Department at Guess corporate offices; and Daniel Musto, On-Camera Wardrobe Stylist and Costume Designer for NBC's "Fashion Star" and "Ready For Love" Reality TV shows.





After brief "hello's" to the audience, I began with an impromptu "Mom-and-Dad" FIDM Open House Runway/Walk-Off --where I picked parents from the audience to do a runway walk. First, I did my "Nick Runway Walk" as a brief lesson and then, they followed. It was a big hit.







Work The Khakis: One of our Runway Models just happened to be the father of Daniel Musto (seen in photo above)--an FIDM graduate and very successful Hollywood Stylist---who was also one of the FIDM Fall 2012 Open House Alumni Panel guests.

 Nick Verreos Hosts FIDM LA Fall 2012 Open House



As I stated in the beginning of this post, I had the pleasure of MC'ing two Alumni Panel Discussion at this FIDM Fall 2012 Open House with the aforementioned panelists and they both went great! Each former FIDM Graduate spoke of their experience at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising and gave suggestions and "take away's" to the audience of students and parents on how they got the most out of the college and things they learned that still carries them on to this day in their careers. After the Panel Discussion, I had the pleasure of signing autographs as well as taking many photos with lots of the attendees--Here are some:

I had a grtreat time talking to all the attendees--students and especially the mommies and dads who were came up to me and Thanked Me for the "Nick Advice" I gave. Thanks to EVERYONE who attended this fun-and-fabulous--and yes, very informative (I hope!) FIDM Open House!
