Report From the Front: Adrienne Landau Fur & Faux Sample Sale

The frenetic pace and wardrobe of the original Pedro Almodovar "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" 80s hit is captured in the Broadway musical starring Patti LuPone (as Lucia) who rocks a leopard coat and hat that takes center stage of this musical set to open on November 4 at the Belasco theater.  Five-time costume design Tony winner Catherine Zuber has created confections in such vivid hues, that you may be inspired to book a flight to Madrid where this vibrant tale of tumult is set. See Women for the A-list actresses who showcase their flair for theater along with their flair for feathers (maribou and otherwise), distinctive silhouettes, white patent ankle boots, passionate purples and even the cab driver in snow leopard pants.

Love Lupone's leopard look? Head to the Adrienne Landau fur and faux fur sample sale where you can find traffic-stopping leopard print hats, vests, or coats. Maybe there will be markdowns since tomorrow is
the last day.  Prices start as low as $35.

518 Eighth Avenue, 21st Floor.  Scope out adriennelandau.com
