This season, we are dressing for the occasion. Silk, tulle, feathers and precious gems bring colour, movement and plenty of sparkle.
Bustier lines, asymmetric cuts, ruffles, mesh and structured coat dresses bring plenty of drama. Some silhouettes frame the body with precision; others open into volume and movement. The jewellery keeps pace. Pearls bring softness, diamonds add brilliance and coloured stones turn up the heat. The result is party dressing at full volume: strong shapes, vivid colour and jewellery every bit as bold as the clothes.
