Constance Madssen is not one to tolerate competition well and the arrival of Della Roux in New York could only mean one thing: another pretty face to steal her spotlight and she would have none of it!

Fighting for maximum visibility, Constance selected one of the most beautiful, intricately embroidered couture ensembles for the Max & Newman Department Store holiday campaign... Her own way to show the newcomer how it's done!

Let's have a flashback moment and go back to the very beginning of the East 59th storyline...

With the dark days of World War II behind them, Lady Aurelia Grey embarks on a Trans-Atlantic voyage home to the Big Apple, to visit her parents and brother, which she has not been able to see in years. Unbeknownst to her, the gorgeous Ms. Victoire Roux had also just boarded, her head full of dreams, following an invitation to meet her old friend Laird in New York.

As fate would have it, it didn't take long before a simple "Is this seat taken?" moment led to an instant friendship, which marked the beginning of many exciting, fashionable adventures!

Our little story continues, as we dial back to the early days of East 59th!

Soon after Lady Aurelia Grey introduced her new friend Victoire to her handsome younger brother, the trio would meet at The Stork Club, where Victoire Roux introduced her good friend, Laird Drake to them, and as they say, the rest was truly like a "Sentimental Journey"! Swayed by his perfectly polished demeanor, Laird fell hard for Gus and things grew quickly. Not only did the pair become fast friends and passionate lovers, but they would also eventually co-found the East 59th Agency, and the rest, as they say, is history!

Our little flashback moment continues as we witness the very first encounter of Lady Aurelia Grey and the fabulous Ms. Victoire Roux, while on a luxurious

Trans-Atlantic voyage from London to New York City!

Always the perfect fashion plate, Victoire comes with her own fashionable, late 1940's inspired travel wardrobe, complete with a sensational change of clothes, the perfect standout dress she wore that night at The Stork Club when she introduced Aurelia's brother Gus to his future life-long partner, young and upcoming New York model Laird Drake!
