Pre-FIDM DEBUT 2016 Festivities! Nick Verreos at the FIDM DEBUT 2016 Educators Luncheon, Open House and Fashion Club Party

This past week was the FIDM DEBUT 2016! This is one of the most important--and largest fashion shows on the West Coast--and more importantly, it is the Fashion Finale to a year's worth of design work from the "creme de la creme" of design grads from my Alma Mater, the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. I will do a Photo Recap of this year's fashion show in a future blog post but for now, there were other pre-FIDM DEBUT festivities to attend to.

Nick Verreos--FIDM Los Angeles Campus--Ready for the FIDM DEBUT 2016 Educators Luncheon

As the Official Spokesperson for the college, I was honored to be part of the FIDM DEBUT 2016 Educators Luncheon, an annual event to thank all the educators from many schools who bring a wonderful spotlight to what FIDM has to offer. I also enjoyed MC'ing a FIDM Alumni Panel Discussion for the fun FIDM DEBUT 2016 Open House, with an audience of hundreds of students and their parents! And finally, I had the chance to participate in the fabulous FIDM DEBUT 2016 Fashion Club Party--a pre-DEBUT Fashion Show event that brings out fashionistas from all over the U.S. and beyond!

Here is my BLOG PHOTO RECAP of all three events! And if you made the "Photo Cut", please let me know! If you did not, you know I still LOVESSSSS U ;)

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...
