LEGENDS 2019 to Offer 3 Full Days of Events: May 7, 8 and 9
LEGENDS 2019 TO CELEBRATE ICONS OF DESIGN
35 OF THE BRIGHTEST DESIGN STARS ALREADY SIGNED ON TO CREATE WINDOW VIGNETTES
What becomes an icon most? Fifty design stars from around the U.S. and the world are going to define that in their own way during the La Cienega Design Quarter’s annual highly acclaimed LEGENDS event, which this year will celebrate the design stars of yesteryear.
The most sought-after event on the national design calendar is set for May 7, 8 and 9, 2019. This year’s theme – Legendary: Icons of Design – is a revival of the very first LEGENDS event in 2009.
True to tradition, the selected interior designers will transform the windows of the 50 LCDQ shop and showroom windows to honor legendary icons such as Albert Hadley, Rose Cummings, David Hicks, Elsie de Wolfe, Mark Hampton, Andree Putman, Billy Baldwin, and Dorothy Draper.
After LCDQ-hosted kick-off parties in New York and in Los Angeles, 35 interior design stars have already committed to creating windows honoring icons of design and only 15 windows are left. Designers from around the U.S. and abroad who will participate in the LEGENDS 2019 windows include Nina Campbell from London, Bunny Williams, Alex Papachristidis, Neal Beckstedt, Sasha Bikoff and Nicole Fuller. Popular Southern California designers such as Jeremiah Brent, Bradley Bayou and Brooke and Steve Giannetti also have signed on to design windows.
The largest event of its kind supported by major corporate sponsors and a dozen media partners, LEGENDS brings thousands of influencers, enthusiasts, top design editors, and purveyors of design from across the U.S. and from around the world to the LCDQ for three days of keynotes, open houses, discussions, book signings, exhibitions, social events and networking.
New features are in store for LEGENDS 2019:
– There will be 3 full days of programming, starting with breakfast and a “Shop the Quarter” day on Tuesday, May 7, with luxury transportation throughout the LCDQ.
