Mallorie Dunn

Mallorie Dunn is a visiting assistant professor in Pratt’s Fashion Design Department. She is a NYC based fashion designer and business owner. After graduating from the Fashion Institute of Technology and Pratt Institute she worked in corporate design before deciding to switch to a life of freelance work. Through the freedom a freelance schedule allows her – she was able to launch her line, SmartGlamour, in Spring 2014.

SmartGlamour morphed into what it is today after many discussions about body image issues and the lack of accurate representation of women, femmes, and non binary folks in the media. Always having the desire to make clothes – Mallorie found her real passion behind the designs when she realized she could help people with her garments. She’s excited as SmartGlamour continues to grow into a even more fully realized movement of body liberation and community for women, femme presenting and identifying individuals, and non binary folks.

Mallorie considers herself to be a teacher, designer, and artist. In her education career, she is focused on making the fashion industry a more inclusive and sustainable one. She is constantly searching for new ways to express herself, better herself, and help others. SmartGlamour is a culmination of all of these things.
