Kate
Pankoke is just as articulate, kind and talented in person as she
seemed on TV. Kate is a woman who speaks through fashion personally and
professionally, living what she stands for.
The
first question I asked her was if she made her own gown for her wedding

Tiers are a signature for this season called “Romance in Bloom.” Kate does one collection per year, usually fourteen looks.
