Concours Couture Information

For 2008, the Barrington Concours d’Elegance, Legends & Legacies, will feature a Concours Couture Class. the 2007 People’s Choice winner was Angela Cantore with her beautiful 1938 Talbot-Lago. Many attendees were simply “wowed” by the gorgeous period attire that so beautifully complimented the Cantores’ automobile.

We’d like to invite everyone to consider joining in the fun of adding couture to your Concours experience in Barrington. It brings the flavor of the early Parisian concours alive! In addition to automobile awards at the show, participants will be given the opportunity to be rewarded for their combination of automobiles and period-appropriate fashion.

You can enter the Couture class by checking the appropriate boxes on the automobile Nomination Form. E-mail fashion@barringtonconcours.org for more information.
