We all salivate over the latest designer handbags and shoes, but since the financial crisis few of us have the cash to take one home. But why deprive yourself? Bergdorf Goodman’s is serving up affordable luxury accessories which are just as delicious as the originals.
Tomorrow the Fifth Avenue store’s BG restaurant will start serving Prêt-à-Portea, a special menu of fashionable petit fours, cookies, and layered desserts. Linda Fargo and Roopal Patel of Bergdorf Goodman were inspired by the latest collections from Chanel, Oscar de la Renta, Michael Kors, Phillip Lim, and Christian Louboutin.
“There were definitely designers that came down the runway that you thought, dessert,” said Mr. Patel.
“Maybe you can’t have it, but at least you can eat it,” added Ms. Fargo.
These edible bags will be available at the New York Bergdorf Goodman’s store from February 13 to 20, coinciding with New York Fashion Week. High tea is only served from 3 to 5 pm, so reservations are recommended. Call (212) 872-8977 to make sure you don’t miss out!
