BIG BLUE TIFFANY BOX FOR LAMBERTSON TRUEX

A blue box from TIffany has been a symbol of the finest taste since 1837.   The tradition continues -as Tiffany & Co. announced they have acquired Luxury Accessory Collection - Lambertson Truex.   LT was acquired by Samsonite back in 2006 and while Samsonite is the forefather of American luggage - their forays in luxury have continued to fizzle-  think Samsonite Black Label.   (That collection was  launched by creative director - Quentin Mackay - a talented designer in his own right - but Samsonite could not  rise to the occassion).AUDREY HEPBURN IN BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S

LAMBERTSON TRUEX EXOTIC CLUTCHLambertson Truex is a chic collection with understated logo appeal that has been on the short list of luxe shoppers "in the know" for 10 years.   Design duo Richard Lambertson and John Truex have luxury industry pedigrees as long as your arm!  Everything they do is chic and subtle - but with a twist.  LAMBERTSON TRUEX BOOT

Many fans hoped Samsonite would have injected the funding to make the collection a household name.  Not so much.   Bravo for Tiffany- the legendary jeweler for recognizing the potential of another great American brand like Lambertson Truex!

I'm sure under the watchful eye of Tiffany - LT will flourish!   Maybe we can look forward to some super chic Tiffany Blue clutch bags??   Maybe a limited edition TLT collection?   Stay Tuned!!
