While escorting a student group recently from Canada on a Shop Gotham Garment Center student tour program, we were invited into the showroom of Michael Kaye, hot formal-wear designer (Michael Kaye Couture), who also happens to be from the groups’s same home town of Alberta.  Mr. Kaye received  The Fashion Group International’s 2004 RISING STAR AWARD (the same given to Zac Posen – not bad). He Kaye delighted the group with stories of the industry. What a thrill it was for these young fashion aspirants. You never know what can happen to you in NYC! www.shopgotham.com

Part Retail Marketing education, part fun Shopping, the itinerary was high spirited and jam-packed with some of the best NYC has to offer.  Stores provided exclusive discounts, doors opened early for us and designers were on hand to chat it up. We took over the streets! and all had a swell time.  To find out if our tours will suit your student group, please see: www.shopgotham.coms
