Behind The Seams of...

Textiles, Trims & Sourcing

Featuring: Alexis Chait

Come join us at the end of each month for an intimate conversation with fashion industry rockstars.

This project is partially sponsored by a City of Tempe - Community Arts grant.

✨ Behind The Seams is BACK! ✨

We’re kicking off this year’s series with an incredible guest: Alexis Chait – Fashion Trend Forecaster, Fabric Sourcing Expert & Fashion/Textiles Educator.

Alexis has worked with top brands like Rebecca Minkoff, Theory, Ralph Lauren, Macy’s, Walmart, and Amazon. She’s a global fabric sourcing expert, trend forecaster, and passionate sustainability advocate. Her work even helped debut collections at Vegan Fashion Week 2023 in Los Angeles. 🌍✨

At Behind The Seams, every speaker not only shares their journey but also teaches us something hands-on. Alexis will be bringing a loom and teaching us about weaving...a rare opportunity to learn directly from an industry insider!

👉 Don’t miss this exciting kickoff event and chance to connect with Arizona’s fashion community.
