In honor of the upcoming Women’s Equality Day, W Scottsdale is continuing to amplify the voice of women who challenge the status quo with the return of its annual What She Said speaker series on August 24th, featuring Mignon Gould, a fashion + film afficionado, long-time journalist and the founder of FashFilmFete at Phoenix Art Museum.
The latest installment of The Modern Day Wife’s female-driven event What She Said will take place on Thursday, August 24 from 3-8 p.m. at the W Scottsdale and will feature an evening of empowering and educational conversations with celebrities, creators, CEOs, designers and founders – like Gould – who are breaking the mold, pushing the limits and inspiring others along the way.
The successful panelists alongside Gould include Audrina Patridge, the American television personality, model and actress, Polly Brindle of Selling the OC, and Emmy Award-Winning Journalist, AZ Family TV Host Yetta Gibson. In addition to hearing from the celebrity panel, attendees will enjoy a fashion show, beauty tutorial and exclusive pop-up shops with over-the-top photo opportunities to capture the dynamic evening.
