Philanthropist and entrepreneur Lizzie Tisch is bringing downtown to uptown, transforming the old Cartier boutique on NYC’s Madison Avenue into a modern-day cabinet of curiosities.
Like the centuries’ old rooms that housed wondrous and exotic objects, the LTD by Lizzie Tisch store features whimsical clothing and objets d’art from small, sustainable brands.
There are colorful kaftans and dress coats made with hand-loomed silks, rich brocades and wools from designer Nazzy Beglari, who’s based in New York and Abu Dhabi. There’s playful jewelry created by New York jewelry designer Mckenzie Liautaud, including the brand’s Cupola Magic Crystal necklace, which became a favorite of both Tisch and actor Sarah Jessica Parker. Not to mention the “f——–ck” mug created by artist Dustin Yager at Ceramics + Theory, as well as vintage china “insult” cups by Miss Havisham’s Curiosities, with messages such as “I Hope You Choke” and “Yep, Still Single.”
