Anna Dello Russo and I
On the first day of New York Fashion Week I attended a very special breakfast at the Vogue headquarters to preview Anna Dello Russo’s collaboration with Macy’s INC. She edits the line and chooses which pieces to include; Anna made it very clear during her speech that she is not a designer. This is a brilliant strategy of Macy’s to bring Anna Dello Russo’s high fashion Milanese glamour to the mass market.
Anna Dello Russo for Macy’s INC
Anna is a very kind and generous woman and said she wants to share fashion with the whole world. She was truly sweet to everyone at the brunch – especially Bryan Boy, whom she ran up to kiss on both cheeks when she first walked in – going up to each of us to ask if we wanted a photo with her. I had heard from blogger friends that she was very down-to-earth, and that proved to be true. Around 25 bloggers were invited including Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes, Karen Blanchard of Where Did U Get That, and Aimee Song of Song of Style.
