2000 Best Women's Clothing, Ladies Who Lunch

Akris

The praise doesn’t get any higher: The late Liz Tilberis, editor in chief of Harper’s Bazaar, once commented at a charity event in Boston on how elegant the women looked in their Akris suits. The suits are exquisitely crafted in fabrics like double-faced wool, cashmere, silk chiffon, linen, and cotton voile; even those of us who have to work for a living can appreciate that.
