A flashback to a proud and unforgettable moment, when the First Lady of Maryland, Dawn Moore, wore @epcstyle to the Governor’s Cup Tournament Gracious, elegant, and fashionable in our signature golf apparel, the First Lady’s presence and kind words were music to our ears. We’re incredibly honored to have had the opportunity to dress her for this special occasion. Moments like these inspire us to continue designing pieces that empower every woman to feel confident, beautiful, and ready to play. With heartfelt gratitude, thank you, First Lady Moore. @dawnflythemoore @preaknessfest @littlemstyle @angelique_iconiq @stylexshowroom @drummdigitalmedia #EllaPritskerCouture @epcstyle @ellapritskercouture Let’s play! #StyleForYourActiveLife #GovernorCupTournament #FirstLadyOfMaryland #WomensGolf #Apparel #MadeInMaryland #Style #Grateful #LetsPlay #GolfFashion

What. A. DAY. We are still in recovery mode after an epic week of @preaknessfest events. The George ‘Spider’ Anderson Music & Arts Festival was the place to be for the Preakness 150 kickoff! We brought the culture, the flavor, and the love to Park Heights — and the city showed UP! Over 80 vendors and food trucks held it down, 1000s of people pulled up from across Baltimore and beyond, and the energy was unreal. From live performances by headliners #mclyte and #dougefresh, local artists Natalie Phillips @diva_songbird , @gerson_franco_dmv2 , and the @eclipseinternationalband hosted by the fabulous @aprilwattslive , to all the activities at the Kids Zone, @dtlrofficial 100-bike giveaway, Clean & Green grilling up 300+ hot dogs & burgers, and those lucky raffle winners walking away with FREE @preaknessstakes tickets — it was all love. Major shoutout to the @mayorbmscott and the City of Baltimore, the State of Maryland, Preakness 150 Festival, and our amazing sponsors for making it happen. - PHR: #HensonDevelopment, @the_nhp_foundation , #LifeBridge Health, @park_west_health , #Gaurdenzia, Strategic Talent Leaders - State: #AmazonAccess, #Verizon, @orioles , #BrownAdvisory, #Carefirst, #Whiting-Turner, #M&T, #MDLottery, #PNC, #KaiserPermanente Of this was your first time, we hope we set the bar high and look forward to even bigger and better for next year!
