The production of ‘Made in NYC Fashion Show and Pop Up’ was made possible by the commitment of Imani Jones and Joseph Fraia, founders of ShopLocalDesigners.com, their production team, and the visionary talent of Willard Morgan, director of Ideal Glass Studios and owner of The Atrium.
The event is kindly sponsored by ‘This is Good Water.’
‘Good Water’ was birthed during a pandemic where water, although an essential need, was scarce. The company’s desire was to produce a product that was crisp and refreshing during these strenuous and exhausting times. Their goal is to provide a luxury beverage that promotes health and wealth without compromising style and appeal.
Water is luxury, and luxury is water.
