With the largest fashion fete gracing the Big Apple in less than a month, scores of stylistas have been salivating over the chic possibilities. Sensing a perfect opportunity to broadcast our fabulous vision of forty-plus style, Off Broadway Boutique has decided to participate in Fashion’s Night Out global celebration by hosting a party at our store on the Upper West Side. In promoting our collection of elegant pieces to women over forty of all sizes, we have succeeded in tapping into an often-overlooked market that is quickly asserting itself as a lucrative force in retail.
“One of the reasons why we’ve been successful for over forty years is because we’re one of the few boutiques in New York that specifically caters to real women,” owner and Countess of Glamour, Lynn Dell, proudly declares. “We’ve never been about chasing the latest trends because we’ve been far too busy establishing timeless style amongst fifty-something women who live for looking fabulous.” With a vast selection of wardrobe pieces and glamorous jewelry that are handpicked by Ms. Dell and her seasoned staff, Off Broadway Boutique thrives in presenting its faithful clientele with choices that will fit every size, style, and way of life. In participating in Fashion’s Night Out, we plan on establishing a new kind of lucrative customer – the 40+ fashionista.
With our personalized take on styling for bodies that range from slender to full-figured, Off Broadway Boutique has earned a well-deserved reputation as a New York fashion institution in a way that exceeds other designer boutiques and department stores. As noted fashion blogger, Ari Seth Cohen observes, visiting the shop will prompt the most selective of stylistas to spend “all afternoon playing dress-up in a collection of over 40 years of new or vintage clothing and accessories.” It is that enthusiastic outlook that Off Broadway Boutique hopes to inspire in the fashion industry’s impression of women over forty who embrace that baby boomer chic.

Owner and Countess of Glamour, Lynn Dell, finds style inspiration everywhere she goes. From the markets in Turkey to the streets of Mexico, a vacation is never just a vacation – there is shopping to be done! It was no surprise that upon returning from her weekend with the family in the Hamptons for her granddaughter Olivia’s 13th birthday that Lynn had style inspiration to share.
She describes each event as an affair to remember: from dinner at Tutto Italiano and speaking to Katie Couric who is celebrating her father’s 90th birthday to an equally important milestone – a 13th birthday celebration at the beach which “looked like a scene out of a Fellini movie… as the sun set over the water while my gorgeous girls carried umbrellas from Thailand.”
Naturally, this image left one thing on her mind – umbrellas! As every glamorous woman knows, from forty plus to baby boomer, style goes from head to toe accessories included! We’d like to present to you our cheerful 2-in-1 parasol umbrella by Anii Natural Fashions. We’d imagine that if Catherine Deneuve had her way she would’ve been carrying this in the Umbrellas of Cherbourg.
The parasol/umbrella features a cheerful multi-color fabric parasol cover adorned with intricate embroidery designs. The cover can be easily removed to unveil a multi-color umbrella featuring a cartoon image. It even comes with a whistle to call a cab!

Rain or shine we’ve got our style eye out for you!
With love, OBB

Hello, ladies. Are you seeking that one-of-a-kind summer fashion that’ll set you apart from the rest of the pack? If so, you’ve come to the right place because Off Broadway Boutique prides itself on designing original pieces for 40+ women that sizzle. What’s more; each garment is crafted with the utmost quality by our expert seamstress in our in-house design studio. As you peruse through three of our latest additions to our exclusive collection, you’ll see that each pick has its own je-ne-sais-quoi.
First up is our black and white sequin poncho – an excellent evening top that is ideal for hosting an outdoor shindig in. Not only does the swirl pattern give off that psychedelic look, the square sequin shine adds glamour to the material. Its voluminous silhouette belies a modest v-neck neckline that rests above the cleavage. Whether you choose to wear this piece with a regular pair of leggings for a simple look or a pair of jeggings, otherwise known as jean leggings, for that extra pizzazz, you’ll certainly stand head and shoulders above the other fifty-something fashionistas!
Black and White Sequin Look Poncho (Limited Edition), $317, exclusively at Off Broadway Boutique
Another piece that has the same arresting effect is our sheer black puffy-sleeved jacket, which shares a similar voluminous silhouette. However, the sheer organza material lends this piece a dreamier and ethereal look. With a lighter-than-air feel that contrasts with its larger-than-life style, it’s just the thing to wear to an evening Broadway show. Just as dramatic as it is sophisticated, this jacket possesses a long and loose necktie and puffy-shouldered sleeves that offer both comfort and luxury. Pair this with a dressy camisole underneath and you’ll be sure to be the best-dressed lady at the theatre.
Black Organza Puffed Sleeved Jacket, $317, exclusively at Off Broadway Boutique
A piece that commands attention, our red three frog-button jacket possesses the bold and fearless quality that speaks to many of our fantastic 40+ clientele. Inspired by a regal Asian style, this raw silk dupioni piece boasts three intricately-woven frog buttons that are designed into an elaborate twist pattern. Each button keeps the jacket slightly closed, making it as useful as it is stylish. Regular sleeves are folded up once for a simple ¾ sleeve look, while the large square front pockets on the bottom of the jacket balances the boxy silhouette. What’s more; the collar is versatile to be worn as a great way to work your fabulous updo with your sophisticated jewelry or down to complement a simple bob hairdo with classic jewelry. Wear these with a dressy pair of capris to a summer evening wedding and you’ll be one fabulously fashionable baby boomer!
Silk Dupioni Jacket with Black Frog Embellishments, $317, exclusively at Off Broadway Boutique
No matter what your idea of unique is, you’ll be confidently stepping out in style when you choose our exclusive pieces. Not only will they guarantee that the spotlight will be on you, each in-house studio-created garment has that lavish look that distinguish you as a forty-something stylista. Keep this in mind when you shop at Off Broadway Boutique and you’ll certainly be one dashing diva!

If so, you’ve come to the right place because Off Broadway Boutique specializes in making 40+ women over into fashionable femmes. And with the geometric look being in style right now, we believe that this is the perfect opportunity to introduce to the collection that embodies that elegance. After all, you’ll be destined to shine in these exquisite pieces this season!
A great way to start is with our black Ronald Jackson geometric t-shirt because it definitely captures everyone’s attention. Designed with hand-painted gold and silver stripes that are vertically slanted on each shoulder, it boasts a geometric effect that’ll keep any fabulous fifty-something in style! What’s more; this 100% cotton tee features a silver-studded round collar that adds sizzle to its loose fit. Wear it with our pretty petit pois leggings and you’ll be all set for a lovely Summer day!

If you’re interested in adding that extra oomph to your look, you should consider pairing our terrific triple-hoop clip-on earrings with this black shirt. Made with hammered Mexican silver, these lightweight pieces consist of three geometric circles on each earring that cut an eye-catching silhouette. A single stripe holds the triple hoop together on each earring to create a dangling effect, thus adding dimension whenever you wear them.

On the other hand, if your idea of geometric chic has more to do with adopting an exotic style, we highly suggest that you contemplate our Ronald Jackson silver and gold geometric t-shirt. After all, its intersecting silver and gold stripes cut across one another in a triangular pattern to create a tigress look. In addition, this white 100% cotton loose tee possesses the geometric illusion that is reminiscent of the electric 80s style. With silver studs that decorate the front of the round collar, a fantastic 40-something woman can easily recreate that look by rolling up those sleeves and paring them with our petit pois leggings.

Should you be at a loss as to what to wear with this tee, we suggest that you choose our Bat-Ami electroform cuff as a chic addition to your outfit. Sculpted into a geometric wave texture, this rose gold piece gives off a bold illusion that is the ideal complement to our dazzling t-shirt. This distinct bracelet also has the benefit of being lightweight – a significant contrast to its heavy look. It shines in the sun so that you’ll definitely be the center of attention!
