A part of your business model, when you launched, was to offer opportunities to mentor girls and women interested in fashion and business— is that still a focus for the brand?
CHAMBLESS: Yes! Nurturing our young women has been the heart of CFD since the beginning. We of course want them to look cute and be excited to wear our pieces, but we also want them to feel confident and secure, and we know that what they choose to wear is a big part of that. We have so many fantastic partnerships with other brands and businesses that align with our mission. We believe in supporting positive growth in young women, and we are thrilled to be a part of their journey. are also seeing a rise in fruit prints, bright embroidery and romantic ruffles, which introduce an element of whimsy and softness to fashion. This season will showcase a variety of materials, offering diverse textures and weights. Intricate embroidery will enhance uniqueness in garments, while denim will provide a balance of casual comfort and trendy silhouettes. Additionally, textured fabrics will add a vintage-inspired charm to the overall look. These are all key design features you’ ll find in our 2025 launch.
Chambless concludes,“ Cake For Dinner has grown beyond my wildest dreams. Our team is expanding, and we love staying true to our mission— teaching young women the business of fashion. With every new hire we get to do just that. Expect to see us all over the place this year and beyond— online, at popups and in your favorite shops!” n
