| “... Natalie has the uncanny ability to research and select prints that are on trend and choose base cloths and colors that will sell for her employers and clients. Her technical understanding of the printing and dyeing process is invaluable. Throughout the years, she developed some of our most successful fabric programs to date that continued to reorder. Her expertise in apparel has helped some of the largest fashion companies to put themselves on the map and others to grow or expand into new markets.” |
| Elliot Glantz, President US Silk / Preview Textile |
| “... Natalie has traveled thru the fashion industry demonstrating a talent and a passion in the world of design. Working with Natalie at Macy's NY was a pleasure and a revelation. Her eye for fabric and color was remarkable. Natalie has always been adept at fashion that sells. I never felt that there was any compromise in the aesthetic for the sake of the sale. She managed to keep the integrity of design but was the best at the translation of the product to the needs of the audience. She achieved the delicate balance of best design and great commercial value. I worked with Natalie again on a more upscale product at Garfield and Marks. Once again she delivered color, print and designs that were exciting and appropriate for that customer. She was always a skillful professional and a pleasure to deal with.” |
| Joann Langer, VPGMM TJX Corp |

She is remarkably intuitive, innovative and creative with an extraordinary sense of color and style. Natalie is also knowledgeable about production and able to balance cost with esthetics. Her devotion and professionalism are beyond reproach. But what impressed me most was her get-things-done attitude. She is great to work with.” |
