On Wednesday, October 16th at the Martha Graham School Scholarship Luncheon at the Scandinavia House in New York City. We are thrilled to be honoring Peggy Lyman Hayes, who this year celebrates her 40th Anniversary with Martha Graham. The Luncheon is an important annual benefit event for the School, with proceeds supporting the School’s Scholarship Fund. For more information, please contact Amanda Hameline at 212.229.9200 Ext 25.
We were inspired by the soft grays in the invitation, one of our favorite trends for fall, and went to SAKS.com to find this trio of soft knits. Whether you fancy the Diane von Furstenberg Pentra Lace-Paneled Tweed Dress $475.00, the 3.1 Phillip Lim Embellished-Neck Paneled Stretch Knit Dress $650.00, or the RED Valentino Lace and Velvet Jersey Dress $695.00 you will be ready to hit the stage in perfect luncheon style. For fancy footwork, try a pair of Diane von Furstenberg Bianca Leather & Mesh Pumps $350.00, or Michael Kors Stephanie Leather Crisscross Pumps $295.00. While Rebecca Minkoff Mini Affair Shoulder Bag $195.00 and Loeffler Randall Convertible Clutch $295.00 are each a versatile piece for your fall and winter events. Each of these choices are so well choreographed that they can take you from luncheon, to cocktails and dinner in performance-ready style.
Recognized as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century Martha Graham created a movement language based upon the expressive capacity of the human body. It all began in 1926 when Martha Graham started teaching a group of dancers who had been drawn to her creative work. Thus began the Martha Graham Studio, to remain under her personal guidance for the next 66 years.
