Lucky Brand kicked off their Fall 2011 Campaign with a fete at Eveleigh on Sunset Wednesday night hosted by Tim Gunn. The Eveleigh provided the ideal oasis where denim and Hollywood collided for a night of effortless style among a sea of crimson dahlias, inspired performances from DJ Mia Moretti and violinist Caitlin Moe, and a life-sized gallery of the new Fall Campaign shot by Carter Smith; all while toasting with the enticing “Lucky Punch”.
Noah Mills and Tasha Tilbert
Starlets, CEO’s, and Style Setters were all in tow. Guests included Amy Smart, Busy Phillips, Sarah Hyland, Alicia Witt, Julia Jones, Irene Neuwirth and the Veronicas’ Jessica and Lisa Origliasso; but it was in meeting the featured Fall Campaign models Noah Mills and Tasha Tilberg that only further confirmed the direction of the upcoming season, classic and endearing . . . with edge. CLOTH got a behind-the-scenes sneak-peak to see the stylists behind the Lucky Look in action before the big fete. In adoration of the partnered vintage inspired graphics with Triumph and Indian motorcycles and the jewel tone Moroccan influenced textiles, it was the white lace caftan on Tasha that wowed. Straight from the sample rack of Summer 2012, the abundance of fringe gave this design a twist that could take you from a beach bonfire to an indie concert just by adding a pair of skinny jeans and those perfect go-to boots. Brava! Lucky Brand!
While fashion led the night, it was the backdrop of the Eveleigh that caught CLOTH’s eye during some stolen moments of vintage awe. Refurbished fixtures abounded this west coast endeavor by Nick Mathers, Lincoln Pilcher, and Nick Hatsatouris. As french fries with truffled aioli, roast beef crostinis, stuffed squash blossoms, and the unforgettable tuna tartar chips circled the venue; CLOTH was captivated by the cow skull light fixture above the front bar. Made up of various vintage skulls and hanging bulbs to which were enclosed in a classic wooden crate, this definitely stood out as a must-have conversation piece.
