Alex Turco

Tuesday night at Neiman Marcus in Chevy Chase, the Italian designer Alex Turco welcomed guests to view his collection and enjoy pairings with couture style and exquisite Fendi furniture.

Turco’s “My Art is a Matter of Lifestyle” featured iconic female imagery painted and covered in glitter, stones and other luxe medium. How is it a lifestyle? One statement piece even showcased a former girlfriend in Turco’s favorite color (which is brown).

To see more of Turco’s art and hear him explain his inspiration for some particular pieces, be sure to tune in to K Street Kate TV.
