The Art of Fashion 2025

The perfect Rancho Santa Fe day, and a community gathered in true style and spirit.
 
The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe once again proved to be the ideal backdrop for one of our village’s most anticipated traditions. This year’s Art of Fashion, hosted by The Country Friends, was nothing short of spectacular.
 
With a banner fundraising year and a runway sponsored by the always fabulous South Coast Plaza, the show dazzled with designs from Bally, Balmain, Camilla, Eleventy, Max Mara, Monique Lhuillier, Stella McCartney, and, my favorite of the day, Oscar de la Renta. It was an incredible achievement for The Country Friends and the many charities they support.
 
As this year’s Champagne Sponsor🥂 I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate: raising a glass to friends, fashion, and the vibrant Rancho Santa Fe community. Here’s to another year of beauty, generosity, and friendship.
