Trunk Show Alert: Jan 25 – 28, 2025

Zelda Nashville located at 4231 Harding Pike Suite 2

We caught up with Kori from Zelda in Nashville about her career, her favorite Alembika items and more about the upcoming trunk show.

From a young age I loved to sew my own clothes and loved fashion design.  I started working at Zelda under the previous owner, Marsha Hunt, when I was 16.  Marsha taught me a ton about retail and became a mentor to me, and she remains my mentor to this day.  I never knew I wanted to be in retail until she mentioned passing the Zelda torch on to me and that was over 7 years ago!  

In my next life I would be a travel agent.  I love traveling and finding places that are off the beaten path.  Although, I do have a real talent for missing flights, misreading bus times, booking more than one hotel because I forgot I already booked one…so I’m not sure I’ll be very successful in my next life.

My top 5 “must carry with me” travel items are a small crossbody bag, a waterproof boot, an Alembika Punto pant, a mesh cardigan, and a tee shirt.

My favorite season is spring and my go to wardrobe is a funky pant and maybe a crop vest.  Bring on the wide leg, the drop crotch, the cargo pockets, the prints…the funkier the better!

My favorite style item is the Punto pant, because it’s an awesome wardrobe staple that fits and flatters so many body types.  It’s so comfortable and each season Alembika makes it in new fabulous fabrics so you always have more options!

Alembika has been a big part of Zelda for a long time, ever since I can remember.  The Alembika brand, to me, embodies comfort, creativity, and quality.  I dress for myself, but if what I’m wearing makes someone I walk past smile that day or think “what an interesting outfit” all the better.
