LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - May 21, 2008) - Luthier PR --The new queen of country
music, Miranda Lambert, dominated the legendary American Country Music
Awards with her rockin' performance of "Gunpowder & Lead," while visually
captivating the audience by wearing J Gerard. Lambert proved her right to
wear the Country Music crown when she accepted the 2008 ACM Award for Album
of the Year, "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend."
Lambert was dressed in J Gerard's "AbundiA" cropped metal distressed
jacket. Layered under the jacket was a corset constructed in traditional
Victorian style, made of metallic-heavy cotton and accented with a custom J
Gerard "Dirty Wash Baby-Doll Top" for added softness and movement. Miranda
Lambert was magnetized to J Gerard's windows when she was on Melrose in
West Hollywood, CA, a few weeks ago.
Trends of celebrities wearing J Gerard have been moving at sonic speeds.
Cher presented in J Gerard's "Haute Couture" at the 2008 50th Grammy
Awards. Cher's people were so inspired by Gerard's designs that they are
using them in a nationwide campaign promoting Cher's Caesar's Palace
Extravaganza in Las Vegas. The B-52's Kate Pierson performed in J Gerard on
"The Tonight Show," "Ellen DeGeneres Show" and used Gerard's couture in the
B-52's latest video. J Gerard designs for and dresses Prince, Sheila E, Bob
Dylan, Patti Smith, HBO's "Entourage," Angelina Jolie, Miley Cyrus and Lily
Haydn.
J Gerard is famous for her collection internationally. Also known for her
eco-friendly Streetwise Collection, Gerard was one of the VERY first
designers to create fashion made from bamboo fabrics, as well as organic
cotton and corn -- these pieces are a must!
Julia 'Lady J' Gerard: fashion maven, rock 'n' roller, flower child mystic,
true rebel with a cause. Gerard is original in every sense of the word,
creating style that has been copied yet never duplicated. The first sight
that greets Gerard's clients and visitors at the Melrose Avenue flagship
location is 'Lady J's' personal mantra written across her store front
window:
"DON'T EVER WASTE YOUR DAYS NOT DOING WHAT YOU DREAM TO DO"
