Excerpt from Runway to Streets:

The intricately layered tops and outerwear, paired with the color-blocked skirt lend a more dimensional quality to the outfit.

Gretchen Jones wow’d New York Fashion week with her first independent presentation at Drive-In Studios on Thursday, September 8th.

The Nouveau Classical Project of New York played her show and they didn’t disappoint either.  With classically trained artists, they filled the room with their southern hymnal and bluegrass fusion sound.

The set-up for the band was as thought-provoking as the rest of Gretchen’s show and RUBY + GEORGE was honored to be asked for the use of a vintage 1970’s Handmade Navajo Rug for the performance stage.  A trio of String Musicians stood barefoot on it and sweet sounds danced around the presentation.

Please visit RUBY + GEORGE’s home decor collection for more of these treasures!

As mentioned on Glamour.com, the hair for Gretchen Jone’s SS 2012 show was a show stopper!  Check out the article here.

Also take note of the large gold and turquoise bracelet she is wearing…

You can find that little number here.
