This business networking event is hosted by International Fashion Designer & Entrepreneur Paula Hian at her Design Studio and Showroom in Manayunk, just steps from the train station. Paula will help you achieve a polished and professional look to make your best impression with fashions that go from a power breakfast to the boardroom, travel well for business and leisure, and take you from an evening networking event to dinner on the town.
All Paula Hian knitwear is made exclusively in France using luxury yarn imported from Italy. Paula frequently travels to Paris, where she oversees the manufacturing of her chic and elegant designs. She also creates custom pieces for select celebrity and ultra clients.
Paula recently launched her Spring 2017 Collection, and her Fall 2016 Collection is equally fabulous for women in the workplace.

While pursuing her design degree at New York's Fashion Institute of Technology, Paula was selected to go to Paris to participate in France's famous Concours International des Jeunes Créateurs de Mode competition, where she was awarded First Prize. Her winning dress found a home in the permanent collection of the Louvre and her label was born, with France stamped forever as the birthplace of her career.
A lover of looking put-together, Paula wears her own designs and finds a kinship with women who refuse to become a slave to the trends. She designs for the independent-minded woman who thinks on her own and has her own sense of style. The eloquent statement she makes with her clothes is perfect for someone who has always seen style as the best way to speak to the world without words.
Paula's distinctively sophisticated creations have been worn by stars such as Jennifer Aniston, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Momsen and Brooke Shields. Her designs have appeared on the Today Show, Fox News, Gossip Girl, and Orange is the New Black. She has a clientele of high-powered business women and public officials. Her fashions have been featured in Women's Wear Daily, Elle, Shape, Women's Health, Town & Country, The Baltimore Sun, The Philadelphia Inquirer, and on numerous fashion blogs.
