743 Madison Avenue, NYC
In the fashion world, it is still possible to
not to have a splashy, selfie loaded social media presence-and have a loyal customer base who relies on luxurious, well made, impeccably constructed, sophisticated wardrobe staples for their well-travelled life---composed of exclusive Italian knits and elegant, one of a kind fabrics.
And finished with subtle design details lacking from similarly priced, high-end labels.
Leggiadro, is such a company-with boutiques offering a civilized (personalized) shopping experience-in many exclusive locales-where their clients frequent…Palm Beach, Nantucket, Naples, NYC's Madison Avenue, Palm Desert, and Beverly Hills-to name a few.
Not to rest on its laurels-which are considerable-Leggiadro, a family run entity founded by Ann Ross…is reaching out to a younger set of customers (via a print campaign featuring model
Maggie Rizer)...
---who may not think to visit the aforementioned locales---but would appreciate, and look great in, the European inflected- wide assortment of versatile casual and dressy tops, über soft silk knits, tailored and relaxed trousers and shorts, feminine dresses---combined with resort essentials (scarves, swimsuit cover-ups)…that every women would need.

this is how to mix patterns---same colors-one print more 'low-key' than the other |
For us-the exquisite details and stunning solid tones and seasonal prints-inspired by art, nature-and jaunts to far flung locales, really stood out.

sheer silk chiffon over a skirt in the exact same print-feminine detail flatters perfectly- when walking |
Most of what we saw for Pre-Fall (and Spring 2014)- could be worn interchangeably--- year round.

custom buttons |
Additionally-refined trims---particularly the custom buttons that adorn the separates… and the presence of immaculately placed linings and finished hems --- ensure a polished outfit-with flattering silhouettes- for those who don't necessarily need to wear the ubiquitous/established fashion labels... but prefer (and appreciate) gracefully chic apparel- made exactingly well.
