April  2014 
NO FOOLING! 
LOUIS VUITTON-A-THON IS HERE!

 

Once again, Classic Collections is pleased to present our annual LouisVuitton-a-thon beginning April 1, 2014!

 

LouisVuitton-a-thon 2013

 

Offering pre-owned Louis Vuitton handbags, luggage, briefcases, accessories, scarves, and other delectable goodies that all LV devotees will jump at, we have an incredible selection for your shopping pleasure! 

 

 

  

LV Limited Edition
 Bordeaux Mirage Speedy

New or vintage, we've got them

all! Consider the Limited Edition  Bordeaux Mirage Speedy

or the ageless classic Keep-All 55 that is appropriately travel-seasoned. Looking for some luggage to stack in a bedroom or den for atmosphere?  We've got all sizes and styles for your decorating pleasure.

 

LV Keep-All 55

 

Certainly, if you LOVE Louis Vuitton, this is an event you simply cannot miss!  First come, first served, opening at 10 AM on Tuesday, April 1, 2014.  Stock is limited, so the early bird and all that!

 

 

LV "Icare" Softside Attache 

While it was written  as the story of a Jamaican sailor returning to the island to reunite with his lady love, we think the words can be applied to our Louis Vuitton-a-thon:  "Louie Louie, oh no, Saying we gotta go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah;  Said Louie Louie, oh baby, Said we gotta go!"

 

 

CHANEL SALE!  

 

For the first time ever, Classic Collections is holding a Spring Chanel Sale!  You read that right!  All pre-owned Chanel clothing is currently marked down 20% and includes suits, skirts, dresses, tops and scarves.  With classic style and tailoring, Chanel pieces are truly a staple in any fashionable woman's wardrobe.  Whether new or vintage, we have a superb selection of Chanel pieces ranging in size from 36 to 48!  

 

Timeless Chanel Classics
Always timeless, Chanel is one of

the few classic designers whose merchandise holds its value and cachet.  If ever you wanted to own an "investment" piece of Chanel, come on in!  Of course, this applies to our friends who may have Chanel they no longer wear or fit into.  Bring your items in and reap the benefits with consignment cash flow!

 

JUST ARRIVED ~
ELANA KATTAN SPRING COLLECTION!

 

For the fourth year, Classic Collections is pleased to announce the arrival of spring and summer fashions from designer Elana Kattan.  Hailing originally from Israel, Elana studied in Tel-Aviv, Paris and New York and currently designs and manufactures her beautiful collection in Miami.   All of her marvelous fabrics are imported from Europe, especially Italy and France.  Known for the wonderful "fit" and fine "hand," these colorful, light-weight knit day and evening dresses, skirts, tops and jackets showcase Elana's attention to detail, design and construction. 

 

Perfect for traveling (everything is hand-washable), this unsurpassed collection is made for any casual, cocktail or dressy event!  With mix and match wraps, bolero jackets and scarves, a few pieces of Elana Kattan can take you from day to night anywhere in the world!  Long a favorite of ladies who love traveling and cruises, these marvelous creations can be packed and worn without wrinkles, hand washed for daily wear, and even thrown in a washer or dryer at home.  All of us at Classic Collections own several of Elana's dresses, so we can tell you from personal experience how comfortable, lightweight and easy to care these fashionable-yet affordable-- pieces are!  

 

FASHION SHOW REVIEW! 

 

Sally
The Palm Beach Yacht Club recently invited Classic Collections and Sally Kimball to host a lecture and fashion show for their members.  Discussing the business
of women's couture consignment,
many
ladies were introduced to the world of designer consigning and treated to a show of gowns, suits and day dresses along with handbags, shoes and fine and costume jewelry.  Models sported such designers as St. John, Chanel, Tiffany, Versace, Lana Marks, Judith Leiber, Cavalli and other well known names.   

 

Chloe in Alex Tieh
Vanessa in PepaPambo
While many were surprised at the caliber and quality of consigned merchandise, those who are familiar with Classic Collections were not! Interest was very high about the consignment process and it is fair to say that there may be new converts to the wonderful world of couture consignment!  


    

Captivating Chloe

As a result of the luncheon being sold out in 2 days, the Palm Beach Yacht Club is hosting Classic Collections again on April 2, 2014.   

                  Stay tuned!

 

THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS!

 

Classic Collections has a sublime selection of all kinds of accessories to brighten up your spring outfits, you little devils, you! 

 

Kieselstein-Cord
Silver Slide  belt

 What fashionista wouldn't have a couple of terrific belts to show off on a dress, over a long tunic or dress up a pair of ordinary slacks?  Take a peek at our Barry Kieselstein-Cord silver and crocodile belts or bright leather belts to perk up any outfit!  

 

Looking for a small gift or pick-me-up? 

Wonderful Wallets

Zip right over to our selection of business card holders and wallets by designers such as Burbury, Louis Vuitton and others.  Made of crocodile, shagreen or fine leather, there is something for everyone!  

 

 

Handsome Hermes

Of course, the default accessory to enhance any ensemble is always an elegant scarf.  With a new selection of designers such as Hermes, Chanel, Salvatore Ferragamo,   Pucci and others, we offer a wide selection of colors, sizes and fabrics from beautiful, rolled Hermes silk to breezy silk Ferragamo chiffon, to the classic patterns of Pucci on their impeccably woven Italian silk.  The final fashion statement is that scarves fit everyone...so no worries about size!

 

If sunglasses are your private vice, we have lots of

Bvlgari Sunglasses

designers from which to choose!  Bvlgari, Gucci, Prada, Versace, Chanel, Balenciaga and other designer eyewear come into the shop on a regular basis.  But move fast...these spectacular spectacles are snapped up quickly!  


SPOTLIGHT ON CLIENTS!

 

Once in a while, we like to showcase some of our delightful clients who we have become friends with over the years.

  

Paula Leed and Sally
 at AHA Luncheon

First up is Paula Leed, co-owner of Royal Jewelers from Andover, Massachusetts.  Paula has been a part-time resident of Palm Beach for many years and has a strong private client base here for her high-end fine and fashion jewelry.  This bundle of energy also has time to support local charities and, in fact, was a corporate sponsor for the American Humane Associations' Annual Luncheon at Mar-a-Lago held in March.  

 

We would like to thank Samantha Curry for her continued

Samantha Curry

support of Classic Collections.  Samantha, who is a realtor with Fite Shavell in Palm Beach, came to us searching for the perfect outfit to wear to the Norton Museum of Art's  special event "To Jane, Love Andy:  Warhol's First Superstar which honored Warhol's muse, Palm Beach native Jane Holzer. We were able to provide Samantha with a truly wonderful necklace and bracelet which completed her fabulous 1970's themed outfit for this special night! 

   

Terry Ebert  Mendoza and Sally 

 

Terry Ebert Mendoza has been a friend, client and consignor of Classic Collections for several years!  We first met Terry over some interesting Louis Vuitton pieces and grew to love her for her impeccable taste and unusual fashion eye!  Long a supporter of several local charities (LIFE, American Humane Association, Palm Beach Opera, University of Miami among others),

Terry is terrific source of world-wide fashion knowledge!

 

FUR PICKUP!

 

Just as President Regan said with conviction, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!", we also want to say loudly and with certainty, "Consignors, come and reclaim your furs!"

 

Yes, ladies, it's that time of year to reclaim your furs or let them go.  Furs that are not picked up by May 1, 2014 will be forfeited and donated.  We simply do not have the room to "store" furs and respectfully request that if you wish to re-consign a fur, you bring it to us again in November.                                                          "Goodbye Furs!"  

Sally and Mobley

We love having these beautiful, warm and wonderful coats, jackets and unique pieces, but they really must go home with you over the summer!
