Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that all was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, and make it possible. -- T. E. Lawrence
To laugh often, and much
To win the respect of intelligent people
And the appreciation of honest critics,
And endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others,
To leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child,
..
a garden path,
or a redeemed social condition
To know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived,
This is success.
Love and Laughter,
Lily Armani ~ The Flower of Couture ™

Music is a very important part of my career; from A to Z and everything in between. If it touches a cord, I am all over it. Each song that I use in my act means something to me, as I hope it will mean something to you.

Survivors ~ we all have pain and sarrow, but it is how we deal with and learn from it that makes us a survivor. The past shall not define me; I do not know what the future holds, but I do know who holds the future.
For over eight years Lily Armani ~ The Flower of Couture™ has entertained audiences from coast to coast. For the past six years Lily has called Seattle home, but admits that she "triple loves, Peurrtland" [Portland, OR] - her home away from home.
2009 Emmy® Nominated Female/Celebrity impersonator (So You Think You Can Host), storyteller, stand-up comedian, beauty pageant queen, and short lived talk show host [ABC and KOMO's Northwest Afternoon] - there is no stopping this down home diva. Full of class and sass, Armani calls herself, "the last of the 'Big Shouldered Broads'."
"...I got into this business to do one thing, make people laugh. If you can't laugh at a 27 year old dude, that looks like a 45 year old M.I.L.F., dressed up in all this mess, then you shouldn't be out on the streets of Seattle after dark no way," Armani tells her audience!
Her stunning beauty, untouchable comedic timing, and supreme versatility as an artist makes Lily Armani ~ The Flower of Couture ™ a 'triple threat', and one of the very best that Seattle has to offer.
The Reviews are in:
"Hers is as near-perfect a stage performance as I've ever seen. She delivers no joke that doesn't land, no line that's miscalculated, overplayed or underplayed, no gesture or inflection that isn't precisely what it needs to be. She knows just when to launch a flaming diva rocket and when to toss off an aside. And she moves like an ocelot: graceful, with hidden sharp claws." --Gavin Borchert Seattle Weekly review of Vampire Lesbians of Sodom
"...so amazing you have to see it to believe it, so I've heard...I've never actually seen her." --Kathy G.
"...I almost peed my pants!" --Julia Roberts
"...you're so beautiful *shoves Lily to the side* OH MY GAWD...you're GLAMAZONIA" --Ross The Intern Matthews
Available for: Corporate Events; Bridal Showers; Baby Showers; Birthday, Retirement, Anniversary Parties; Bachelor/Bachelorette Parties, Lily Armani ~ The Flower of Couture™ is just what you need to make any occasion special.
