C. Orrico just off of the famous Worth Avenue ( The Rodeo Drive of Palm Beach ), is been selling Lilly Pulitzer ever since the label is been around .
Lilly McKim married Peter Pulitzer and needed something to keep her busy down there in Palm Beach all day long. She opened a juice stand and soon found the need for something comfortable that would camouflage the stains she would get on her clothes when squeezing fruit. The result was a brightly printed dress she could wear every day, everywhere. Not only was the dress practical, it quickly became the iconic style of a fun-loving lifestyle... The Classic Lilly Shift was born.
Every season I had to have few more Lilly new print dresses or Capri trousers, in the print there written Lilly hiding in the design and this was another cool factor of the brand . I still have all as part of my personal archive .
So did you found Lilly written hiding in the design of the above prints?
The Print looks amazing with 60 style shapes , the good American Bon Ton .
I was so happy when I saw a Lilly Pulitzer inspired collection for Prada Cruise 12.
The one of you who know me know I am obsessed with Prada !!! last year I did ask to interview her for HIA magazine on " Where Fashion goes on holiday " and ... I was told she does not do interview ...... I wanted to ask her can I go holiday with you ... I am not an Fashion intellectual more a fashion Barbie but I am lovely .... I will try again to ask if she need a sister !!!
I of course bought quite few pieces from Prada cruise !
Lilly Pulitzer dress from my personal Archive.
Have a wonderful Printed Spring !!!
