On June 18th, The Golden Triangle was transformed into the backdrop of ‘Evenings in Vogue’, which is an annual event organized in various cities across the country. Hosted by Amy Tara Koch and Whitney Lasky, the event brought out Chicago’s crème de la crème to shop, sip, and of course mingle. “The party was great and it’s about time Vogue started covering the fabulous parties in the best city in the world!,” said local socialite Candace Jordan. Some of the fashion vendors included in the party were Decades Vintage Clothing, Lisa Kingsley handbags, and jewelry by Tangerine Sky and Gillion Carrara. Outside of the focus on fashion, the event also helped others by giving 10% of all sales to the Lynn Sage Breast Cancer Center.
