CMBA Business Fashion Show

On January 22nd The Carnegie Mellon Business Association held its annual Business Fashion Show. Seventeen models showcased trendy outfits in business casual, business interview, and business formal wear. As the models walked the runway, Jennifer Frick provided the audience with great tips on the dos and don’ts of business wear. Tepper students, Jamie Yieh and Nathaniel Foster hosted the show and introduced the three styles of fashion to the packed room. In attendance were around 70 undergraduates.

As time rolls around for interviews, internships, and job searches, every student will need to know how to dress for professional success. Therefore, The Carnegie Mellon Business Association hosts the fashion show each year to give students an idea of proper attire for Business functions. After the show, students, models, and faculty were able to mingle over appetizers and network. The Business Fashion Show provided all attendees with a fun filled hour of learning professional dress code while watching friends and classmates strut the runway.
