Prabal Gurung... who? Look above... Michelle is a fan (worn at Smithsonian in Feb.) and so are we!!! Gurung will hold his first EVER retail PA at our Neiman Marcus store in Troy, Michigan on Thursday, March 25.
YOU can see his Spring collection all day at the store with a champagne party starting at 6pm.
For those who need an introduction (no shame if you do!!!) his Spring collection is described as: "In an economic climate that must make it tempting to cut whatever corners you can, it's clear that this is a young designer devoted to the craft of making clothes, and to making them with some of the finest materials out there."
The inspiration? The starting point for Gurung's 26-look lineup was a bottle of his mother's YSL Rive Gauche perfume from the 1970's. "I loved it," he said, "and I love product design, so I thought about playing with the idea of packaging."
Who is this guy? Born in Singapore; inspired by New Dehli while in school; traveled every where cool to style for shows and designers; attended school at Parsons; interned at Donna Karen; designed for Cynthia Rowely; headed up design direction at Bill Blass; struck out on his own in 2009; and, found much praise for his modern and lady like collections. Don't forget "dressed First Lady, Michelle Obama," too.
And now he comes to Michigan!
