Neiman Marcus hosted the special Madhatters themed lunch for Stella McCartney and it was one heck of an event. They decked out the entire middle of the 2nd floor including a full on topiary maze that we had to find our way through in order to reach the middle where there was a long table piled high with toys and mixed and matched teacups and china. There was a croquet area where models showed off the newest collection while taking part in the game. Everyone was wearing unique and silly hats and there was even pieces of what looked like a set from the movie. Nick-Nacs lined the maze and everything was incredibly detailed on the table. Scrabble tiles were used as place settings and there were little decorated cakes and nibbles on cake trays. Etch a Sketches, yo-yos, and various child games were all over the table and everyone (no matter how old) played with them. It was so entertaining to watch. The luncheon was also interesting because women of all ages were sitting and chatting to one another and because everyone was there with a common purpose, everyone had something to discuss and could branch off into over conversations from there. Stella was the most lovely lady and Quincy Jones even came out with his daughter to support her. If I was to throw a party, I would so get the department at Neimans to design it. I couldn't believe how much work went into the look of the lunch and the food was delicious. Stella's new collection is AMAZING- very youthful and fun yet chic!- just her area of expertise!! Definitely check it out.
