L’intermission
A Fashion Rendezvous We had long been fans of stylist Ty Hunter through his inspirational Instagram account @tytryone when members of our team had the chance to meet him at Ashley Longshore’s pop-up gallery opening at Bergdorf Goodman in NYC last year. Celebs and fans alike buzzed about hoping to meet the Queen of Pop Art, and we spotted Ty from across the room as he stood in line waiting to say hello to Ashley. What a beautiful man! (We tried not to stare, but it was difficult to take our eyes off of him.) After spending nearly twenty years as Beyoncé’s stylist, Ty has spread his wings and grown his brand as a motivational speaker, an entrepreneur, and a designer in his own right. He also represents exceptional brands as he styles celebrities for various red carpets and events. Enter Elie Youssef, to whom we were introduced by Ty and his business partner Sean Frazier. We’re in awe of the classic elegance and sheer star power of Elie’s designs. As you’ve seen from his beautiful bridal collection, he isn’t afraid to make a statement. (Who wouldn’t want to wear a chic, sparkling jumpsuit to her next big event—or even walk down the aisle in one to say “I do”?) Love. Love. Love! However, if you’d rather be a princess on your big day, don’t fret. The classic ball gown is back in a big way. Just turn the page to see more!
Love, VIE xo
