Summary: Skip the boring mix of day dresses, random bathing suits & "interesting" silhouettes - yes the tulip sounds like a romantic skirt one would want to own until it's rendered in merciless purple silk with exaggerated draping right at the hips - and stick with the fabulous gowns. Confections to savor come in an array of tasty colors including elegant pink, ivory, sophisticated dove grey, black (of course) & shimmery molton silver.
Color Palette: ivory, white, pale grey, royal purple, white ombre'ing into aqua & cobalt, florals, chartreuse, shimmery silver, black & white, black, elegant pink
Textures & Details: tulle overlays, striking 20s epaulet shoulders; strong body-hugging decorative Art Deco lines intersecting and curving like parentheses past the waist to the floor & under the bust for the most flattering of hourglass looks.
Key Looks: white column with Eyptian-style beaded jewel neckline & asymmetrical oversize floral print at the hem; dove grey floor-length gown with 20s style epaulet cap sleeve; vibrantly elegant pink gown
