Not only is Ellen Sandor a champion of the arts in the Chicago philanthropic community, she also has killer taste in fashion. Layering a Comme Des Garcons cape over an Ohne Titel dress is nothing short of brilliant, though she credited Ikram when I complimented her style. Ellen, you get credit too – after all, you’re wearing it!

 

And really, would we expect anything less from a woman who serves as a Lifetime Trustee at the Art Institute of Chicago, Chair of the Gene Siskel Film Center, and founded the photography & art cooperative art(n) as a pioneer of digital media in 1983?
