Lord & Taylor Unveils Corvette's 50th Anniversary Edition Model

NEW YORK, May 17 -- Lord & Taylor will unveil Corvette's 50th Anniversary Edition model on Wednesday, May 22. The ultimate fashion accessory, the 2003 Corvette will be seen first in the store's Fifth Avenue windows, a week before it is seen again at the Indianapolis 500 race.

Along with the 2003 model, Lord & Taylor will also feature Vintage cars from 1955, 1966 and 1978 as well as blow ups of photos of Corvettes, with human-interest stories featuring the cars of various private owners.

The installation of the windows will begin on the evening of Tuesday, May 21. The plate glass will have to be removed and the cars driven unto the sites one by one. This will take several hours and the project will not be completed until sunrise the next day. The windows will be up until Tuesday, June 18th.

Until Father's Day, June 16, customers will be able to visit a Corvette outpost in all our stores and select from a collection of 50th Anniversary commemorative merchandise, including ties designed by Nicole Miller. They will also be able to purchase a Lord & Taylor Special Edition Gift Card featuring a 1953 Corvette and register-to-win a two-day all-expenses-paid trip for two to the Justin Bell GT Driving School in Boca Raton, Florida, plus additional prizes. On June 13, New York customers will have the opportunity to have their picture taken in a Corvette.
