On Thursday, October 12th Houston-based designer Christy Lynn Lee brought her southern charm to NYC to celebrate her Spring/Summer 2024 collection.

Media stars and influencers including Jenny Cipoletti, Sydney Sadick, Sophie Elgort, Kate Bartlet, Natalie and Dylana Suarez, Janie Pierrepont, Aya Kanai, and more all attended the dinner in looks from Christy Lynn’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection.
The collection titled “La Danse” is a celebration of life and new beginnings. “We dance through the collection with romance and embrace unexpected turns for new opportunities,” says Lee. “Every detail is made with fear and excitement.”
La Danse is heavily influenced by vintage Asian textiles, which filled Majorelle with florals. Many of the attendees wore key looks from the collection. Christy Lynn played with romantic colors and textiles throughout the collection.
Many of the guests wore sheer, silky, and eyelet looks in shades of pink, purple, black, powder blue, and white. Christy Lynn is known for its classic, elegant silhouettes which were present throughout La Danse. The garments consisted of pleated dresses, flowy floral trousers, blouses, and more.
