Stuart Weitzman’s career is a testament to the power of creative risk-taking over conventional paths. After graduating from the Wharton School in 1963, he turned down a Goldman Sachs job offer to pursue women’s shoe design. This bold choice led to a world-famous luxury brand and sustainable success. His legacy is recognized academically; in 2019, the University of Pennsylvania named its design school after him. Weitzman now lectures nationwide, inspiring students with his unique journey. His career is punctuated by risky, creative endeavors, from designing the 2002 Oscar “Million Dollar Shoes” adorned with 464 diamonds for actress Laura Harring, to selling his company to Coach (now Tapestry) for $574 million in 2015 while remaining chief designer. Weitzman exemplifies how individuals and brands can balance bold creativity with strategic business thinking, ensuring a brand identity can thrive beyond its founder’s retirement. Join us for this special evening as Stuart Weitzman visits GLAZER HALL. All tickets include a pre-show cocktail reception Meet and Greet.
