Déjà vu
Déjà vu owner and designer Stephanie Carter was recently featured in Southern Living magazine for her locally run clothing line, Judith March.
The April 2013 issue of the magazine features Secrets to the South’s New Riviera. It highlights the “most posh-pools, on-trend designers, and tasty eats” along the Gulf Coast of Florida and Alabama.
“I was so humbled when they asked me to be a part of such a fun and exciting feature,” she says. “It was a joy to work with the Southern Living team and my fellow Florida fashion designers, Nicole Rockhill and Caroline Smith, they were both so sweet.”
