Lenox Cocktail Party

Oct 10, 2018 | New York

Lenox hosted a cocktail party to showcase the evolution of Kate Spade New York under new creative director Nicola Glass, and celebrate their partnership with interior designer Brian Gluckstein. The venerable tabletop company also introduced the new Global Tapestry by Lenox collection and the new Linea Ottica collection by award-winning architect Luca Andrisani.

Among the 150 guests on hand were Andrisani, Gluckstein, Glass, Michael Wainwright, and Kate Spade New York CEO Anna Bakst.

“This year’s party was a great evening celebrating quality products and talented design partnerships for the launch of our Spring 2019 collections,” says Lenox CEO Michele Barbone. “Lenox Corporation has hosted an annual cocktail party during each New York Tabletop Market, and this year, we shifted the focus to honor not only our namesake brand, Lenox, but all of our brands.”
