Members include home-grown and internationals, well-known and aspiring designers, journalists, photographers, stylists, buyers, brand managers, make-up artists, PRs, brand managers and more.



FBC meets six times a year on the last Thursday of every other month from 3:00pm – 4:30pm at venue partner, Swarovski CRYSTALLIZED™, and share a media partnership with VOGUE.com.
