At a meeting last week, the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA)’s Board of Directors ratified the addition of 26 new designers to its membership, bringing the group’s total to 427.
The new Members are: Joseph Altuzarra, Coomi Bhasin, Vince Camuto, Jean-Michel Cazabat, Emily Current, Carly Cushnie, Rachel Dooley, Meritt Elliot, Judy Geib, Nili Lotan, Pamela Love, Paul Marlow, Jana Matheson, Yvan Mispelaere, Lauren Moffatt, Jeffrey Monteiro, LeAnn Nealz, Kerry O’Brien, Michelle Ochs, Shimon Ovadia, Ariel Ovadia, Gabriela Perezutti, Lisa Perry, Tadashi Shoji, Tabitha Simmons, Rachel Zoe.
“CFDA membership is a prestigious honor but it also comes with real benefits in helping designers grow their businesses,” said Steven Kolb, CEO of the CFDA. “We look forward to being of service to the class of 2012 and celebrating their unique talents.”
CFDA admissions occur each spring. Prospective CFDA Members must contact the CFDA to request admissions materials. Eligible candidates may be American citizens designing in the United States or abroad or foreign nationals with businesses based in the United States.
The application for membership includes a resume, a portfolio, and other materials that represent the candidate’s work to date, and two letters of recommendation from active CFDA Members in the same area of design.
The Admissions Committee who then recommends selected candidates for membership to the Board of Directors, which must ratify each candidate, reviews all submissions.
