The Underfashion Club is very pleased to present 3 celebratory women from our industry, Janet Peters, Roz Harte, and Norma Reinhardt. These women, still active and well into their senior years, are intimate market history incarnate. Together, they have had a radical impact on design and merchandising for over 65 years. Now, in honor of their extraordinary legacy and renowned sense of humor, we have brought them together for one evening of conversation. Moderated by Amy Bittner, we present “Getting Intimate with the Icons” on October 7th at the Cutting Room. Come and hear the untold stories as only they will tell them, uncensored and informative.
