I was delighted to check out Lafayette 148 Designer, Edward Wilkerson’s Spring Collection at Neiman Marcus yesterday. The space looked very pretty as waiters walked around with bites and champagne till the show began. Everyone looked fabulous that came out to see the fashion show.
I’d never heard of Edward Wilkerson or the line Lafayette 148 that he carries in the department store but I couldn’t wait to see what was going to come down the runway! The first model out the gate wore a huge pink floppy hat and I smiled as I thought to myself, this is going to be a fab show!
In his collection he showed lots separates that looked like the girls were going to a beach resort. Lightweight matte jersey blouses, Doublefaced jackets, Viscose crepe ludlow pants, floral cotton jackets, light weight leather jackets, silks, Ruched dresses, tunics,linen wide leg pants and shorts, and flowy dresses. As far as the accessories they were to die for! I loved the huge floppy striped hats, purses, shoes,sparkly clutches, and poofy hair accessories!
The crowd applauded model after model as they came out because the designs, hues and looks were so well put together it made you want more! I always have problems putting separates together with accessories but I took a lot of pictures and mental notes and will be adding belts and hats to my wardrobe this spring! Designer Edward Wilkerson did an amazing job with his Spring Collection and I want to thank Neiman Marcus for the special invitation, I had a wonderful afternoon.
