We are starting the summer off with a Planet Trunk Show like no other.
We have all the summer Planet samples of the great tee shirts, sweaters and linen pieces and lots of stock we can sell right now. Leslie is coming on Thursday, May 17th and Friday, May 18th for her great styling.
Wait, there is more: we have ALL the FALL SAMPLES too. Can’t come those days? WE HAVE IT ALL NOW! We will have all the summer and the new fall 2018 samples until a week from this Friday, May 18th, so there is lots of time to see what we think is the best line Planet has done. Of course if you still can’t get here or live out of town, please feel free to FaceTime with us as we are always happy to do that.
The matte jersey for this fall comes in black and midnight as does the nylon and the french terry cloth. They also made several key pieces in a very heavy cotton and the pants and shawl collar jacket are especially good. There are some very narrow pants this season for those of you who like them in the vegan leather, the heavy cotton and the french terry. We have all the styles and all the sizes so you can order with confidence. They do have some of the fall stock in their warehouse so chances are if you want the pieces earlier than June or July when they usually ship, you can have them now or in the next few weeks. The vegan leather comes in mink, black and army green this time. Here are some pictures of the summer linen styles.
This cotton dress is really good too and also comes in gray and white.
We have this tee shirt is black, yellow, geranium, carnation, ocean, and white.
We have this tee in white with black on the bottom and black and white stripe on top with black on the bottom. These pants are here in black too and they fit great.
I don’t have the fall pictures yet but you can see the pieces in person so we hope to see you when you get a chance or when Leslie comes next week.
We also will keep the vintage jewelry from the Carole Tanenbaum collection, the sunglasses from LaFont, and the Stevie Howell loungewear until this Thursday so if you could not get here last weekend, you are still able to see it all. Thank you all so much for coming to the show. It’s always a little scary to ask someone to travel here. If you were here on Lady E’s first day she wore her Commes des Garcons red jacket with matching dress. Here is a picture of the jacket we took off the internet because as usual we forgot to take pictures. It was astounding!
We knew we would have a great response to see Ysaye Barnwell and we have. It is not too late to RSVP so if you are planning on attending please let us know by Friday so we have enough seats and food and champagne. It is Tuesday, May 15th at 6 for dinner and the conversation begins at 7. We look forward to welcoming Dr. Barnwell to Upstairs on 7th.
Do not miss Notorious RBG, the movie about Justice Ginsberg. It was so fascinating and so interesting and funny too. What a trailblazer she was on gender discrimination and women’s rights. She tried seven or eight cases that went before the Supreme Court and it was amazing to hear her arguments before them as they tape them in their entirety. Ironic that she now sits on the Court. She is so funny and she loves to laugh and she is an amazing dresser. We had tickets to the Shakespeare Theatre for years on the same night she and her husband did so we got to see her. Her husband was so doting and she was so tiny. And always beautifully dressed. It was incredibly well done. Everyone applauded at the end.
We have lots of gifts for Mother’s Day and if you are celebrating we wish you a fantastic day!
Hope to see you soon,
Ricki and Katy
