In 2014, EMME launched Fashion Without Limits: Changing the Face of Fashion with her alma mater Syracuse University to create a first of its kind inclusive fashion education curriculum for young designers including designs for size 12 and above. The goal of #FWL is to initiate a shift in the global fashion community toward proactive inclusion of a broader size range of fashion apparel for all women. EMME's work with #SUFWL has received national and international praise from Women’s Wear Daily and DailyMail UK among others. EMME is a regular contributor to The Huffington Post and the author of three books, “True Beauty”, “Life’s Little Emergencies”, and her children’s book “What Are You Hungry For?” She has twice been selected to People Magazine’s "50 Most Beautiful People" and Ladies’ Home Journal chose her as one of the "Most Important Women in America" and one of the "Most Fascinating Women of the Year." These accolades are truly representative of her tireless commitment to advocacy, but it doesn’t stop there: she has also been honored as one of Glamour magazine’s "Women of the Year" and as one of Biography magazine’s “25 Most Influential Women.” EMME is a board member to Hearts of Gold and Project Heal, an ambassador to The National Eating Disorders Association, and donates her time to the Girl Scouts of America. Born in New York City, EMME was raised in Saudi Arabia and attended Kent, the prestigious Connecticut boarding school and was awarded a full rowing athletic scholarship to Syracuse University making her part of the first generation of young women in the nation to benefit from Title IX.
