Ikram Goldman named SAIC "Legend of Fashion"



Most known as the wardrobe advisor for Michelle Obama, Ikram Goldman will be receiving the Legend of Fashion Award at  School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) on May 5th.  Each year at the school's student fashion show/fundraiser, someone is honored for their impact on 'the arts'.

Nick Cave, SAIC Fashion Design Dept. Chair, said, "Ikram is the perfect choice for this award. She is a visionary, not only within the world of fashion, but withing the world of art and culture.  A visionary doesn't function solely in the present, but sees into the future.  Ikram has that ability. She functions from a plact that is about growth and about one's life continuing to evolve, reform, and reshape itself."
Ikram keeps a low profile, but if you're ever in the Chicago area, be sure to visit Ikram Boutique. Congrats Ms. Goldman. :)
