The Setting: Three Neiman Marcus locations (Michigan Avenue, Northbrook and Oakbrook) and their respective general managers (Wendy Krimins, Linda Piepho and Michell Distasio-Flinn) simultaneously hosted events with a live spring fashion show zoomed in from its Northpark Mall in Dallas and curated by buyer Lori Caplin.

The Scene: Joffrey Women’s Board members Noren Ungaretti, Marcie Wright, Camille Rudy, Heather Martin, Joan Malliband and Jenelle Chalmers were event hosts. Greg Cameron (Joffrey Ballet’s president and CEO) remarked that $11M of a $12M goal had been reached for the Company’s Crisis Stabilization Fund and that the Joffrey will return to the Lyric stage in October. Neiman Marcus graciously donated 10% of eligible sales over 5 days to The Joffrey Ballet.
