Care of Chan

As Women’s History Month comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the inspiring ways our associates came together to celebrate, learn, and honor women’s achievements.   Throughout the month, we hosted powerful conversations with women driving meaningful change. Our Beyond the Seams: Changemakers in Action panel featured Jenny Dembrow, Executive Director of the Lower East Side Girls Club, and Asmeret Berhe-Lumax, Founder of One Love Community Fridge, who shared their journeys of grassroots activism and community impact, moderated by Dani Dillon, Director of Production at Care of Chan.   We also gathered for Behind the Seams: Lessons in Leadership, where Melissa Reed (Regional Vice President – Stores, J.Crew) and Shan Escobar (Sr. Supply Chain Analytics Manager) shared insights on leadership, career growth, and making an impact.   While March is ending, our commitment to uplifting and celebrating women continues every day.   #WomensHistoryMonth

As they say: keep it simple, silly. Sometimes the most straight-forward solution is also the chicest. For a dinner celebrating courrèges collection launch with Nordstrom a sea of white candles elevated an industrial carriage house, No. 28 in Brooklyn Heights, into a cozy gathering.

We just held our third Aritzia Power Lunch — bringing together industry leaders, fashion media and tastemakers alongside our Aritzia Leadership Team for an afternoon of conversation with a side of Michelin-star dining. Hosted by Aritzia CEO Jennifer Wong at The Musket Room in New York City, the event opened with remarks from Chief Impact Officer Renée E. Tirado, drawing inspiration from this year’s theme — Embracing Your Authentic Voice. With curated conversation starters and a poetry reading by New York Times-bestselling author and poet Cleo Wade, the afternoon explored the power of reflection, vulnerability and women’s words — something we’re celebrating at Aritzia all month long. The Aritzia Power Lunch, hosted this year during Women’s History Month, brings to life our Women to the Power of Women™ ethos and commitment to fostering spaces where women can connect, lead and inspire one another. And yes, everyone was very well dressed.

Resy’s year-end trend report is out! The trend this year that really hit home for me is how many diners said they value in-person connection – and restaurants are where they’re gathering to do that.   To bring some of our NYC Resy community together, we hosted a cocktail party last night (one of those that only Resy and our partners know how to throw!) at #DoubleChickenPlease to bring the trends to life and toast what’s been an awesome year in #dining.   Check out the full report in the Resy Newsroom and congrats to the team and the industry for an awesome year!
