Dear Friends, It seems that every time we sit down to write this letter, we’ve just returned from a buying trip. It could be that’s because we’re in New York ten months of the year, in Paris twice a year, and literally all around the world. We hand-select pieces that please our customers and introduce you to new designers you’ll come to love every season. Yes, new designers. We know you love your favorites, but every season new talent appears in the fashion world, and we bring some of it home to show you. We are always on the lookout for styles to match your varied lifestyles. You can go from dressy to casual in the same afternoon! And everyone is looking for comfort and style when they travel, and we know how much you love to travel! Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a wardrobe that would encompass all your different lifestyles…and be wearable for 12 months of the year? These things, my friends, are some of the goals we have in mind when we shop for you. And, speaking of new designers, read the article in our latest newsletter about Mina Lee, the chief designer of the Derercuny line we’re going to introduce to Frances Heffernan customers this fall. We’ve hand-picked it just for you! Thank you for your business.
