The design team of Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough founded Proenza Schouler after graduating from Parsons in 2002.

Moderated by Simon Collins, dean of the School of Fashion, the conversation will cover many aspects of Proenza Schouler’s success, such as how they started their company and what their first years of business were like. The designers will also provide inspiration to current students and recent graduates through their tips on how to become a successful entrepreneur.
