✨ Meet the Co-Chairs of The Art of Fashion Runway Show & Luncheon ✨
We’re just two weeks away from May 13, and excitement is really building for The Art of Fashion Runway Show and Luncheon at Neiman Marcus San Francisco. Today, we’re so happy to introduce the two incredible women helping bring it all together this year—Co-Chairs Teresa Medearis and Pam Preston.
Their energy, vision, and commitment have shaped this signature afternoon in support of San Francisco Opera Guild’s music education programs across the Bay Area.
💬 Teresa Medearis shares: “I can't think of anything more meaningful than supporting San Francisco Opera Guild’s mission—youth education and music in our community. It is a pleasure to work with our valued partner, Neiman Marcus, to create this extraordinary and stylish event which benefits the entire San Francisco Bay Area!”
💬 Pam Preston adds: “As a San Francisco native who spent 14 wonderful years in New York, it is especially meaningful to co-chair an event that brings together global fashion and the heart of our city… The Art of Fashion promises a beautiful afternoon, spring trend insights and a stunning runway show—all in support of the Opera Guild's extraordinary education programs.”
We’re also excited to welcome back fashion visionary Chloe King, who will be curating this year’s runway presentation at Neiman Marcus San Francisco. From the champagne reception to the runway to the luncheon, this is one of those days that brings together style, community, and purpose in the best way.
We’re so grateful to Teresa and Pam for the heart they’ve put into shaping what promises to be a truly special afternoon.
