About Kathy Bacon

Visionary Consultant

“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street; fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” CoCo Chanel

Kathy was told at an early age by her parents that being involved in art or fashion design would not lead to any financial accomplishments. She listened and took a different path for a while….Kathy was a teacher for 15 years in Seattle, Thailand and the Denver area. Later, after her children were raised, she decided to get as much experience as possible in Fashion and landed a job at Nordstrom in Personal Shopping, then Jewelry and finally in Visual Merchandising. Most recent, she started and was Executive Director of a nonprofit called Dress for Success Denver. Helping women move from poverty to self-sufficiency.

“I have always loved fashion and have an eye for putting things together no matter what the size of the woman. I love being involved with designers in Denver; they are a very diverse group of people that have talent that has yet to make headlines. That is where I come in. I believe I can help them find their worth and connect them to our community and influential people by helping them see their vision.”

I am very excited to be a part of Fashion Denver and participate in the changing times of Art and Design. Being a part of this wonderful organization, started by Brandi Shigley will give me an avenue of creativity. I also have been volunteering my time at The Museum of Contemporary Art and The Denver Film Society to enrich my life to the fullest.
