This is a dress I would wear to cocktail parties.

Jubil browsing a collection of wardrobes.
(She's thinking, which dresses will look divalious on her.)

Olives, crackers, grapes and cheese is all I could have.
No pork for me! Had my days of Ms. Piggy.
And some sparkling champagne to go with it.

At first, I thought this was a top, and learned
it's a garment bag!





I love this trench coat dress.

My style of dress, elegant with a touch of simplicity

Ports 1961 launched from New York City in 2004 under the vision of Creative Director, Tia Cibani. It was Tia's dream to build a luxury brand within a global village. Today Tia leads the brand in its embrace of the modern woman, the individualist who dares to try something new. Each collection is inspired by a specific person, culture, place or time.

Tia's truly beyond-borders lifestyle is seen in all her designs. European fabrics, fine tailoring along with hand crafted details found in both the industrial and organic are cornerstones of all Ports 1961 collections.
