Elysa Lazar

Hailed by the fashion industry as a specialist in value and quality in international fashion, and anointed by Redbook as "The World's Smartest Shopper", Elysa Lazar, armed with an MBA from Columbia, began her career in banking and finance.

She soon struck out on her own, however, and within a few years had earned herself a coveted position as a regular contributor on The Today Show, CNBC, Today in New York, and Live with Regis & Kathy Lee.

Elysa then launched two of the industry's best-known and longest- running information sources, the S&B Report, and www.lazarshopping.com. Her media outlets advertise the latest in public and private sales, fashion news, buyer's tips, and market analysis. Her publications and website are filled with inside information, unavailable in newspapers or magazines on such designers as Giorgio Armani, Roberto Cavalli, Marchesa, Calvin Klein, Reem Acra, Slane & Slane, Angela Cummings, John Hardy, and, most recently, the icon of French children's fashion, Bonpoint.

Elysa calls Charleston home, and she travels widely, with primary stops in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Miami. She crosses the country running sample and overstock sales for fashion's most prominent designers, and she takes a breather from time to time with appearances on Oprah and Good Morning America.

Most recently Elysa has brought her expertise to the area of home renovation and design. She and her team restore historic houses in minute detail and then, after the structural elements are complete, she furnishes them with everything - from paintings, antique silver, and porcelain, right through to the linens, towels, and tool boxes. Her houses have all sold furnished, to VIP's from around the world.
