The Style Set

One of the great lessons that I learned as a designer while at Ellen Tracy was an appreciation for the classic woman.  This woman is ultra -chic, timeless, elegant, luxe, understated – a true style doyenne.  I spotted this diva just outside my shop and was in love with her H2T (in Tyra speak – head to toe!) heather grey ensemble.  Mother was a vision in grey cashmere – slim sweater, knit gloves and fringed wrap with mink trim.  Her pinstriped grey flannel trousers were perfect as were her accessories – oversized tortoise framed sunglasses and grey patent leather flats with tortoise trim.  Her perfect cut and color only added to the fabulousness of her look.  Fashion all too often looks past women of a certain age (in Wendy Williams speak!).  It is sad because good taste and admiration for beautiful things are timeless.  I honor and LOVE these women!!!
