R Bar’s red-drenched interior and downtown location set the fitting tone as guests arrived for Lois Eastlund’s Fashion Presentation. Just minutes away from her namesake boutique on 153 Ludlow, Lois spent her final minutes preparing models as friends and fans shared cocktails and conversation along underlit banquets.
Infusing new and classic color palettes into her signature mod styles, Lois offered the audience colorblocking with a kick: Hued geometrics, metallic trims and glossy, diagonal shapes – each look more eye-catching than the next.



Post-finale, invitees were ushered into the back room of R Bar for a special performance by The Happy Problem. Donning Lois Eastlund designs, their performance included new songs like Curvature, Headcase, and The Prettiest Girl.

After winning a spiteful staring contest against a tacky table of over-tanned sorority tourists in matching "I <3 NY" t-shirts, we left brunch and headed back to the Lower East Side to visit Lois Eastlund.
I got a chance to try on her newest dresses in varying hemlines. The mixed-media knee-length dress caught my eye; Zebra print and splatter-paint patterns sound difficult to pair -- but Lois made the combination look chic and effortless.

After playing a little dress-up, Lois directed me to the V Man Model Search website. One of the best models from her runway show last season is in the competition -- Randall Harris. You can click here to find him and vote.
Because, really... take a look at this face.
