Great Britain Invades the California Market Center

The British are coming! The British are coming!

If you walked through the lobby recently at the California Market Center, you might have noticed there is a slight difference in decor.

For tonight's party following the "Macy's Passport Presents Glamorama" fashion event at the Orpheum Theatre, the first floor of the CalMart is being turned into a slice of London to fit in with the Glamorama theme of "The British Invasion: The Music Then, The Fashion Now!"

The lobby is populated with turn-of-the-century street lights, a replica of Big Ben, and a bright red British telephone booth.

All that's missing are a few bobbies. Don't be surprised if you hear people tonight speaking in a British accent.

The fashion show and after-party are benefiting AIDS Project LA and Project Angel Food.
