The word “glamour” means a “magic spell,” in the sense of an alluring attraction, and Palm Desert couturier Fe Zandi’s designs are known around the world for their glamor and femininity. On Friday, February 22, she will present her 2013 Spring/Summer collection to an elite audience of fashionistas who appreciate fine fabrics and what this gifted designer does with them.
A native of Iran, Fe started designing clothes for her dolls at an early age and eventually graduated at the top of her class from the Paris Academy of Fashion Design in London. Her first job was as a costume designer for the famous Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London, which led to apprenticeships with Parisian Designers Jean Patou and Pierre Balmain. As her name and fame spread through fashion circles around the world, she opened her first glamorous salon in Beverly Hills in 1996, and made headlines with her fall collection show at the River Oaks Country Club in Houston that same year. Today, she has a magnificent salon on prestigious El Paseo in Palm Desert.
The Fashion Show Luncheon will take place at the Special Events Center at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, 84-245 Indio Springs Pkwy. Indio. The event begins at 11:00 a.m. with a Reception & Preview featuring a Silent Auction, Furs and Jewelry. The Luncheon and Fashion Show doors open at noon. Tickets are $125 per person, and reserved tables of 12 are available when paid by one table host. Additional information and tickets are available by phoning the Tournament Office at 760-674-8447.
