Ranch and Coast Magazine Cover Feature – September 2010
Falling for Fashion
There’s nothing like being home, home in the Ranch especially if you are lucky enough to live in Laura Barry’s Rancho Santa Fe estate. A top seller with the family-owned Barry Estates, Laura’s home reflects an easy-going elegance, much like the South Coast Plaza designers featured here.
The Country Friends is partnering with South Coast Plaza for the sixth straight year to present the 55th annual Art of Fashion Runway Show on Thursday, September 23, at The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe. Chaired by Andrea Naversen, Ranch & Coast’s editor-at-large, also pictured on these pages, the event begins with Luncheon on the Lawn followed by the fashion show highlighting designs from Emilio Pucci, Ermenegildo Zegna, Marni, MaxMara, Michael Kors, Oscar de la Renta, Saks Fifth Avenue, St. John, Tod’s, and Versace.
The day also includes shopping at South Coast Plaza mini-boutiques, an opportunity drawing, and Apres Affaire, a wine tasting hosted by Falkner Winery. The Country Friends president Jeanne Lucia calls the event “a fabulous afternoon of philanthropy and fashion.” Proceeds benefit 18 local charities. (www.thecountryfriends.org) – Alexandra Allen
