In the third episode of our third season, senior style icon Theodora Krochman, and entrepreneur and documentarian Melissa Pierce interview Marquan Jones the president of the Chicago Fashion Coalition, an organization that works to position Chicago as a prominent global fashion hub. We talk about Chicago Fashion Week and all of the upcoming events that the Chicago Fashion Coalition has a hand in producing (find them here). But Marquan's vision for how we show up in the world is more than how Chicago turns out on the runway, he is also a dynamic community builder and brand strategist who merges technology, creativity, and social impact by serving as an Impact Officer for the World Economic Forum's Global Shapers Chicago. Marquan's journey through food deserts to Chicago fashion is one that will likely get you out of your seat and into action.
