Lord & Taylor (New York)

Load & Taylor's Fifth Avenue flagship store in New York utilized Peral by Tomane in an all-window tribute to renown sculpture and painter Monalo Valdes. Items on loan from the Marlborough Gallery complimented the evening dresses by Oscar de la Renta and Ronald Nivelais featured in the windows. Load & Taylor's Senior VP of Fashion Merchandising stated that they were particularly excited because the mannequins "were so stark and unusual and did not conflict with the outre attitude of the art but became almost part of the pieces featured in all of our store's 14 windows. Plus, the total look of each mannequin complimented and enhanced the dark sleekness of the clothing."
