It was a beautiful Fall Sunday afternoon in Philadelphia and women of all ages joined together at The Rittenhouse Hotel to celebrate Career Wardrobe’s 17th anniversary of helping connect women with jobs. Career Wardrobe is the nation’s largest independent, community-based nonprofit organization serving women transitioning into the workforce by providing professional attire.
The event was hosted by Nydia Han of 6abc.

Guests participated in the silent auctions and then settled at their tables to enjoy tea and light treats before being treated to a fashion show featuring local designer and boutique’s fashions.

The event was a sold out success and everyone is already looking forward to next year’s show.
