Strutting Their Stuff ~ Brands Present 2014 Fashion Lingerie Highlights

Femmy Update ~ The Honorees

 A fixture in intimates for over 30 years, Seth Morris’ journey to President/CEO of Carole Hochman Design Group has been momentous and industry changing.  After Seth graduated from Brown University he went to work for San Francisco-based Determined Production, the master licensee & manufacturer of products for Charles Schulz’ “Peanuts” characters.  This stepping stone lead Seth, in 1983, to join the family business Val Mode as Vice President of Sales. Following a 13 year stretch with Val Mode, the family sold the company in 1996 and Seth’s journey took him to Carole Hochman Design Group. CHDG is a company driven by product, quality, and creativity as well as a forerunner in understanding the power of licensing in the intimates industry. Seth joined the team as Executive Vice President and after 13 years was made their President.  Komar Brands bought CHDG in 2010, and Seth was named President/CEO at the time of the acquisition. Outside of work, Seth’s passion is family and sports. read more
