Fashion show executive Fern Mallis runs the catwalks on four continents. The hard part? Facing top models after all that air travel! Here, the kit that helps her cope.
After heading up New York Fashion Week for 15 years, Fern Mallis, SVP of entertainment conglomerate IMG Fashion, has since launched Mercedes-Benz fashion weeks in Miami and L.A. — which just held its first green-themed event.
