Elie Tahari Women's Apparel Fall 2019

Elie Tahari Dominica Zebra Print Dress
I got invited to an Elie Tahari "Meet and Greet" at Bloomingdales, so I went. There was a short runway show at the end of an interview between the designer and journalist Katie Couric. We learned during the interview that Elie Tahari came to Manhattan in 1971 with $100 in his pocket after serving in the Israeli army because he loved the energy of the city. Where would a melting pot like America be without the energy, creativity and dreams of its immigrants? For better or worst, Tahari is the designer who came up with the tube top.😱 

A few of my favorite frocks from the evening's fashion show are the followingπŸ‘ πŸ‘—πŸŽ©:
The Yenet Skirt on the left is a scene stealer IMO ... fancy and fun. And, the Elissa Sequined Snakeskin Print dress on the right is timeless. It hung slightly longer in length on the leggy model, as well as, on the rack, which is a good thing.
Stud Trim Faux Suede Fit and Flare Dress
Although brown isn't my best color, I like the Dominica Zebra Print Dress (top photo) very much. The (above) Stud Trim Faux Suede Fit and Flare Dress in black is a better color on me. The style of the dress is universally flattering on everybody.
Here are a couple of snaps from the evening: The 1st photo is the interview with the designer to the left and Ms. Couric, who sits on the right. The 2nd photo shows a quick flash of a model wearing a silver evening gown.

Looks like black will never go out of style, nor will animal/snake prints!

  1. Animal prints are back and big for fall. I just bought a reversible cardigan sweater from WHBM. One side is leopard and the other is black. I am a huge fan of animal prints. Of course, you have to be careful what you pair with them. A little goes a long way. I love the skirt and the suede fit-and-flare dress which you correctly point out is universally flattering as the fit-and-flare makes it a modified "A" line, a silhouette that works on just about everyone. Love the detailing at the waist.

    Had a friend who would come to NYC several times a year just to buy Tahari. They suited her beautifully.

    Cheers, M-T
