HQ 106 | SUMMER 2019
As fashion icon Yves Saint Laurent once said, “Fashions fade, style is eternal.” With that in mind, we decided to seek out some of Huntington’s most stylish women.
How did we find them, you ask? First, we asked our 3,052 followers on social media for their picks of the most stylish women in town. Next, we sent out 1,248 emails to some of our subscribers soliciting their choices as well. We then tallied up all the names we received and whittled the list down to 12 sharp dressers. The process was purely democratic.
Next, we set up photo shoots with each of the ladies at various locations throughout Huntington — places like downtown sidewalks, Pullman Square, Heritage Station, 21 at the Frederick, the Cellar Door, Ritter Park, the Keith-Albee and the Huntington Museum of Art. Each woman was told to wear whatever she liked for her shoot. We are quite pleased with how everything turned out!
In the following pages you will find a variety of looks, color and styles. We think the photography and subjects look amazing.
We would like to thank the 12 women who chose to participate in this article. All of them were patient, humble and gracious. So, without further ado, we give you Huntington’s Most Stylish Women …
