We’re excited to officially announce our New York City Soirée August 20th-22nd.
- DATE: August 20-22, 2021
- LOCATION: New York, NY
As one of the world’s leading metropolises for art, fashion, food and theater, New York is a city every traveler should visit, especially a Lilly Lover!
Here, you can find sisterhood, affinity, and connection. We believe that the joys of Lilly should be accessible to every woman. And that together, we can lift and learn from one another.
That’s what Friends That Lilly is about. Empowering each other to be our most radiant selves, supporting women-owned businesses, and holding inclusion to our core. Here, everyone is welcome to the party. And everyone is a friend.
