It was a wonderful opening night party. Betsey was beaming, looking absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations to Kevin Jones for curating such an important exhibition. Not to be missed, if you haven’t seen it, I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in haute couture fashions and ‘The Glamorous life of Betsey Bloomingdale, one of America’s true fashion royalty.

Elizabeth Mason’s Wraps are Sensational on the Runway

Elizabeth Mason Couture Red Silk Wrap

“Included in the show were pieces from Mason’s own line, Elizabeth Mason Couture, such as red silk taffeta wraps, and some VERY fitted (like a glove!) siren gowns (Maria Bello was wearing one). I can’t imagine the knee sweep (Advanced Fashion School terminology, sorry kiddies) on them but trust me, these are gowns to stand and hold Martinis in–not to sit. Which is how it should be!” Nick Verreos
