Fe Noel channeled her emotions into her clothes in a thought-provoking collection.
“I show when I have something to say, ” said Felicia Noel, designer of Fe Noel, just before her runway show. The last time she was on the New York Fashion Week runway was in 2020, and a lot has happened to us all since then. Noel, though, is thinking close to home, losing her aunt Lydia George recently. She called her collection “wish you were here,” a tribute to her aunt, finding a way to channel her grief into her creations.
Her tribute to her aunt began with a simple maxi slipdress in a pinkish hue, it had a hint of transparency and flow to it that set an ethereal vibe. Noel’s DNA is resortwear, often paying homage to her Grenadian roots. And resort was present with her touch of romance, it came mostly sheer and billowy — showing bra tops, satin robes and embroidery on a cloud-shaped strapless gown and even a few intricately embroidered swim options. But as she noted, “unexpected” things were here, too.
There is an emotive lightness and feminine elegance that shines through her work, probably due to looking inward to create. Like grief, the clothing had moods to it, coming in three acts. She rounded it off in celebration with silky water print slipdresses — a blue and green pattern had a dreamy effect. The finale dress, a partnership with financial services firm TIAA, made a statement about women being short-paid compared to men, leaving them with 30 percent less in retirement savings
Called “the Dre$$,” it was a corseted strapless gown with a ruffled petticoat, robe top with voluminous sleeves and a 16-foot cathedral train — and it was all made out of artificial money, $1.6 million to be exact.

The Elements of Good JudgmentJudgment—the ability to combine personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and make decisions—is “the core of exemplary leadership,” according to Noel Tichy and Warren Bennis (the authors of Judgment: How Winning Leaders Make Great Calls). It is what enables a sound choice in the absence of clear-cut, relevant data or an obvious path. Likierman believes that a more precise understanding of what exactly gives someone good judgment may make it possible for people to learn and improve on it. He approached CEOs at a range of companies, from some of the world’s largest right down to start-ups, along with leaders in the professions: senior partners at law and accountancy firms, generals, doctors, scientists, priests, and diplomats. He asked them to share their observations of their own and other people’s exercise of judgment so that he could identify the skills and behaviors that collectively create the conditions for fresh insights and enable decision makers to discern patterns that others miss. As a result, he has identified six key elements that collectively constitute good judgment: learning, trust, experience, detachment, options, and delivery. He describes these elements and offers suggestions for improvement in each one.
