Chris's knees are still shaking from meeting both PAULA DEEN (his personal food guru), and his heartthrob BRANDON BARASH from General Hospital. Brandon came in the store with his mother who is a Kansas Citian and a fan of CHURCHILL. MIKE JERRICK from "The Morning Show with Mike & Juliet" also came by the store! What a delightful guy, and Chris wasalmost speechless.
We can hardly keep our Pauric Sweeney bags in stock! He has been one of our favorite designers for years, and we love all the publicity he is getting. It is well deserved! Celebs like LiLo and JLO love their Pauric Sweeney bags.
CHURCHILL has been voted Kansas City's Best Accessories Store by Kansas City Magazine. CHURCHILL’s pieces have been featured in such leading fashion magazines as Vogue, Town and Country, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, Redbook, Essence, and many others.
CHURCHILL is owned and operated by interior designer Sally Hilkene. For more than 20 years, Ms. Hilkene's work in hundreds of fine homes earned her a distinguished reputation for taste and style.
It has been Ms. Hilkene's goal to open a retail store that represents her eclectic style and interests in art, antiques, jewelry and accessories. Thus, the store prides itself on its capacity to deliver an exceptional collection of pieces with wide-ranging appeal to customers from all realms: private collectors, interior designers and everyday consumers with a great eye for quality.
Ms. Hilkene was named one of Kansas City's ultimate tastemakers as the city's trend spotter and one of the top three interior designers in the city. In 2004, Sally was selected as a member of the Designers Board at Leslie Hindman's Chicago Antiques Fair.
A percentage of all CHURCHILL sales are donated to selected charities every month.
