HAPPY 107th BIRTHDAY ELEANOR LAMBERT!
Today I have a big announcement to make... I have been excited to share the news for a few days now but strangely enough... everything did not fall into place officially until just a few hours ago... right before the clock ticked to August 10th which is Miss Lambert's 107th birthday! For those of you new to the EMPRESS of FASHION blog, scroll down and read the very first post and learn all about Miss Lambert's belief in the number 7....
I have been working to produce an online documentary that will give an in-depth look at the incredible life of Eleanor Lambert and today I am excited to announce that the Eleanor Lambert: Empress of Fashion pilot episode has been funded! We immediately start pre-production this week and will be filming during New York Fashion Week this September!
I want to thank Lidia Jimenez-Vilabella for kindly underwriting our initial pilot! Muchas Gracias Lidia!
In the days and weeks to follow I will be introducing you to the whole team - that is the Brainchild Films production team -- headed up by award-winning director Robert Jason. The team and their list of projects and awards is truly impressive -- but more importantly they share my incredible passion to tell Miss Lambert's story.
In the next few days I will be posting the preview trailer of the project, so keep checking back! And as always, I look forward to your comments and feedback!!
I would also like to thank my friend Andy Morris for suggesting that I blog and of course Eleanor Lambert who showed me that persistence does pay off. Unfortunately, Andy and Miss Lambert never met, but I am sure she would have approved of his advice as well as his chic art-filled offices!

Hello, Congrats on the news!
I'm a senior at Ball State University and also a Fashion Week Photographer. I wrote a paper on the history of Fashion Week, which as you can guess I learned a lot about Miss Lambert. Raised and currently living in Indiana (where Lambert was born) I view her as a role model and inspiration that Midwestern girls have a place in fashion. If you need any assistance or anything done in Indiana for the documentary. Please let me know!
Congratulations again I am so happy her story is being told!
Bravo to you John Tiffany! I never leave comments, but I had to! xo from Paris!
