The Power of Print

Perusing Martha Hayden’s vintage couture collection designed by, Emilio Pucci,
BayouLife was inspired by the pops of print and color. We combined key historic pieces from the historic Pucci fashion house with one of Monroe’s most recognized historical homes, Layton Castle.  The Castle provided a dramatic backdrop for distinctive Pucci fashions. Special thanks to Carol Parsons, Nick McKinney, Martha Hayden, Jay Stephenson, Emma Jane Johnson and Jack Green for their help.
