currently designs and manufactures her beautiful collection in Miami (yes, these creations are "Made In America"). The unique prints and patterns of her marvelous fabrics are imported from Europe, especially Italy and France and, if one was to guess a comparable label, the name Jean Paul Gaultier most likely would come to mind!

Perfect for traveling, everything is hand or machine washable; this unsurpassed collection is made for any casual, cocktail or dressy event! We have just received our biggest shipment ever and these bright and delightful summer treasures are flying off the racks. Hurry in!

CLASSIC COLLECTIONS COMMUNITY!!

Kirsten Braden

Every day at Classic Collections we have amazing and talented women walk through our doors as both consignors and customers. As a way to celebrate these wonderful relationships that have blossomed into friendships, we are starting a new monthly column profiling our clients' accomplishments.

 

To launch this new section we would like to introduce Kirsten Braden. Kirsten has been a loyal Classic Collections client and consigner for many years. "It makes me feel less guilty buying a high-end designer outfit, when I know I can give it to Sally and recoup some of the cost. The trouble is I always come out with an irresistible piece I didn't walk in with," laughs Kirsten.

 

Originally from London, England, Kirsten was a TV Director in Atlanta before moving to Palm Beach six years ago where she homeschools her two children with her husband Jim, and likes to play polo in her spare time. Kirsten is very active on the charitable scene and was Creative Director for the annual fundraiser, "Polo With Pedro" which benefits the YMCA. She is also on the board of the Vita Nova Foundation which mentors local post-foster system adolescents.

 

This dynamic woman recently started an exciting new business partnering with the female doctors who created the world famous Proactiv Solution for treating problem skin. Kirsten says, "now that I am older and through sports spend time in the Florida sun, my skin suffers from another issue-aging. These marvelous physicians have created a clinically proven Anti-Age line called Rodan and Fields. "After I saw the dramatic results on my face, I just HAD to get involved," says Kirsten. The Classic Collection team has tried these products with great success and will be carrying these amazing products in our store in the fall! 

 

Kirsten will be teaming up with Classic Collections to host some elegant cocktail parties to make sure we all look our best for the upcoming social season. But if you can't wait that long, do not fret, here is Kirsten's contact information:
