We begin 2006 by settling into our new “Flagship”store location on Armitage Ave in Chicago. This larger space, with its cheerful atmosphere separate party space, reflects the excitement and growth that is going on at
LILL!
As the year begins, we also introduce a new style—the ANDI hobo. This roomy, over-the-shoulder bag is a great example of how LILL’s
style is maturing. A few months later, another new style is introduced.
The JEANNE is a chic handheld bag that is a perfect fit for the upcoming summer months.
As we see the need in our line for a more organized toiletry bag
we launch CHRISTIE,
a large organizational makeup and toiletry bag, and her 'ittle sister' CANDY,
a smaller version of CHRISTIE. Both are perfect for traveling in
style!
We are thrilled to receive our first recognition
from a large, well known national TV show - The Today Show!
Models sport custom order jeans, shirts and other outfits, all complimented
with one-of-a-kind LILL Bags. TODAY Style Contributor Bobbie Thomas designs
several ANDI and JEANNE styles to coordinate with the various outfits.
Four new LILL on Location reps are welcomed
to the LILL family. Now Milwaukee, Cincinnati and Phoenix can experience
the fun of getting together with friends for a LILL Handbag Party. LILL on Location is now available in 25
cities across the U.S. and we’re still growing!
In early September our Design Your Own Bag concept
is updated on our website to dynamically generate fabrics to lie over
our bag silhouettes.You can now see your bag as you design it! We are thrilled to be able to take anouther step towards blurring the difference between the experience of shopping in-store, at a party, or online.
Another change in early September, Robin Newberry welcomes her first baby, a girl named Kate.
