Meet the Survivalists: Valentine’s Day Edition

Straight from the pages of The Daily: We polled our Survivalists on their Valentine’s Day game plan…

ERIN SUMWALT
Fashion director, People StyleWatch
“It’s a big deal in my family. We decorate, we bake, we get crafty. My son and I start making our Valentines in January! We will probably have an early breakfast with heart-shaped pancakes before I head off to the shows.”

FERN MALLIS
Fashion consultant
“I miss the Bryant Park tents on Valentine’s Day when we would gift attendees with red roses, pink Hershey’s Kisses, or some years, buckets of condoms!”

LISA SALZER
Designer, Lulu Frost
“I love going to a simple and delicious meal with Marlon at our neighborhood stalwart, Piadina, for awesome tagliatelle bolognese and their great house red.”

NAEEM KHAN
Designer
“Red roses and champagne.”

VERONICA MIELE BEARD
Co-designer, Veronica Beard
“I get the kids special cards and candy for their friends. We usually go to Dylan’s Candy Bar a few weekends in advance. Who doesn’t love getting a secret Valentine in school? As for me, every year, my husband plans a night out and he’s got the best imagination!”

JOHNSON HARTIG
Designer, Libertine
“I’ll cry in bed whilst eating a large box of bonbons.”
