This season, Emmy nominated costume designer Daniel Lawson will be joining Lafayette 148 New York for an exclusive fashion presentation at Saks Fifth Avenue at Chevy Chase, Maryland on Saturday, September 26, 2015 at 11am.
“I can always rely on Lafayette 148 New York for their chic, elegant and modern looks to put on my leading ladies,” says Lawson who has been using Lafayette 148 designs on CBS’s critically acclaimed drama series “The Good Wife” starring Julianna Margulies, Christine Baranski and Chris Noth, and is often cited as one of the “best dressed shows on TV.”
Lawson will be joined by Kate Bennett of Politico’s “The KBG File,” for the fashion presentation to discuss Fall 2015’s biggest trends for both work and those off-duty moments.
Guests at the event will learn how to style the new collection for work as would Julianna Margulies’s The Good Wife character, enjoy champagne and sweet treats, and have the opportunity to work with Dan Lawson one-on-one after the presentation. Interested guests can reserve their space by emailing RSVPChevyChase@s5a.com. The event will also feature ‘instant pretty’ make up consultations by Bobbi Brown.
The Lafayette 148 New York Fall 2015 collection is a nod to the 70’s done in a soft neutral gray palette.
