Join ME at the Chicago Reception for "Bill Cunningham New York"!


I'm excited to announce that I, along with Chicago street style photographer Emma Arnold of Très Awesome, will be hosting a pre-screening reception for the Chicago opening of “Bill Cunningham New York” at the Music Box Theatre.

The event will be held at Tula, an upscale boutique located in a beautiful vintage brownstone directly across from the Music Box Theatre. We will celebrate the life work of this truly iconic street style photographer over small bites and cocktails.

As always, DRESS TO IMPRESS! There will be a best dressed competition with ridiculously fashionable prizes from Wilfred Newman and Elyse Marie Venie. There will also be a drawing for a personal style consultation with Haute Closet.

Thanks to our amazing sponsors, you can expect to find gift bags filled with goodies (reserved for the first 100 RSVP guests to arrive) and a delectable "Candy Bar" (courtesy of Daily Candy).

The guest list is filling up fast, so hurry over to bcnychicago.eventbrite.com to RSVP!   And for my fellow Twitter junkies, #bcnychicago will be the official hashtag for the event.

I hope to see you there!

P.S. "Bill Cunningham New York" will be playing at the Music Box Theatre right across the street beginning May 20th. Movie tickets can be purchased at the box office or at musicboxtheatre.com.

ABOUT THE FILM Documenting uptown fixtures (Anna Wintour, Tom Wolfe, Brooke Astor, David Rockefeller—who all appear in the film out of their love for Bill), downtown eccentrics and everyone in between, Cunningham’s enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace. - zeitgeistfilms.com


“A magisterial documentary about urban life and creativity.”

“A great documentary for a deserving fashion legend.”
