This spring, fashion meets philanthropy in a spectacular new-to-San-Francisco event as San Francisco Opera Guild and Neiman Marcus collaborate to present The Art of Fashion Runway Show and Luncheon. This exciting event will showcase the latest trends in luxury fashion while supporting the future of music education in our community. Taking place on Wednesday, May 28th at Neiman Marcus San Francisco, the event will feature a special appearance by Jodi Kahn, Neiman Marcus' Vice President of Luxury Fashion.
Guests will delight in an elegant afternoon starting with a champagne reception at 11:00 am surrounded by friends in an exquisite space designed by acclaimed event stylist J. Riccardo Benavides. Following the reception, guests will enjoy a brief presentation by Jodi Kahn on emerging fashion trends and an exclusive preview of what to expect in Fall Fashion. Guests will then be treated to an exquisite luncheon and runway show, highlighting the latest collections from some of the world’s leading designers and Neiman Marcus brand partners, including Carolina Herrera, Brunello Cucinelli, Tom Ford, Etro, Monique Lhuillier, Libertine, Michael Kors, and more.

As the Vice President of Luxury Fashion, she oversees the selection of merchandise from the most prestigious fashion capitals—New York, Milan, and Paris. Since stepping into this role, she has introduced numerous emerging brands and spearheaded high-profile partnerships. Kahn’s tireless commitment ensures that luxury fashion is at the heart of the Neiman Marcus business. During this special event, she will present a collection of curated looks, handpicked by her from the latest luxury collections, offering an exclusive preview of the season’s must-have trends.
