Please Don’t Stop The Music

In honor of all the music festivals this month, Stagecoach, TWO weekends of Coachella, just to name of few, the P3R team is sharing our favorite albums and how the music has inspired our style.

Who: Jody, Senior Director of Fashion Department

When Music and Fashion Collide:

I think one of my first albums I ever purchased was “Thank God It’s Friday.”  Partly because as long as I can remember I have been obsessed with Studio 54. What an insanely cool melting pot where people of different ages, ethnicities, professions, and lifestyles all came together under one roof without regard for wealth, creed, color, religion or sexual orientation: the diversity was truly combustible.

The crowd was a mix of actors, artists, dancers, musicians, fashion designers and other tastemakers. I mean (come on!) who wouldn’t want to dance the night away with Andy Warhol, Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger, Bianca Jagger, Liza Minnelli, Elizabeth Taylor, Jerry Hall, Diana Vreeland, Halston, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent, Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Elton John, Margaux Hemingway, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Frank Sinatra, Jasper Johns, Farrah Fawcett, Diana Ross, Grace Jones, Salvador Dalí, Brooke Shields or Cher- Just saying.  All of my pop culture icons under one roof with amazing music?

I love Halston as a brand and love how any girl can look like she has been teleported back to the late 70’s in no time at all. Halston Heritage, the lower priced collection under the label is a very affordable option available at Neiman’s, Saks and other specialty boutiques.

The Tory Burch caftan is a perfect day into night look suitable for a night under the disco ball at Studio 54 and so is this gorgeous Balmain caftan.

I adore Amedeo’s cameo collection. I love the contemporary approach to the ancient art of cameo making alternative materials with very unexpected statement piece style settings- perfect for that Halston dress.

Ready, set, dance party!
