The most exciting and glamorous fashion runway event in the Northwest began with a stylish reception with festive cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, followed by a sensational presentation of fall collections from renowned American and European designers like Gucci, Missoni, Marc Jacobs and much, much more. Guests were among the first to have the opportunity to shop these new collections.

For the past 26 years, Nordstrom has been proud to partner with SAMS and the Seattle Art Museum to present the Nordstrom Designer Preview. Proceeds from this year’s event benefited the Seattle Art Museum’s Gauguin and Polynesia exhibition on view in February 2012.
