This past week I had the honor of co-hosting a FABULOUS event at my Alma Mater--The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising/FIDM--in Downtown Los Angeles. The event was titled "The Art of Thai Silk Reception and Fashion Show" and it was organized by The Royal Thai Consulate-General in Los Angeles, Office of Contemporary Art and Culture, Tourism Authority of Thailand, Department of International Trade Promotion and FIDM Museum & Galleries.
