The gold tag label could have easily gone unnoticed to maybe just about anyone except my eagle eyes seem to catch everything. I had to take the dress off the hanger, while inside the Goodwill, and really squint to see The Row made in USA gold tag and I screamed as loud as I could, belted the biggest yell this side of the Mississippi River and everyone turned to look at me…. In my imagination that’s exactly what would have happened except I don’t have the guts for public display. Deep down inside I wanted to scream from the mountain top “I found The Row everyone… The Row!!!!” Named afterLondon’s historic Saville Row, this hip brand is the brainchild of Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen. The Row delivers a directional take on tailoring with a focus on clean lines and refined cuts. Expect an elegant downtown mix of superbly crafted wardrobe staples. It was established in 2006 and the brand has expanded to include ready-to-wear, eyewear and handbags…(remember the $35,000 alligator backpack that SOLD OUT at Barney’s I believe )… In 2012, The Council of Fashion Designers of America named Ashley & Mary-Kate as Womenswear Designers of The Year. Part of The Row’s mission is to support high end fashion manufacturing in the US. Keep keeping it “green”. I’m your luxury curator.
