Marchesa Spring 2013

Rich colors, elaborate beadwork, intricate embroidery, exposed midriffs and draped fabric exposing a single shoulder . . . India was discernibly the inspiration for Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig this season. The 60s, Mod-ish spin to the glamourous gowns and otherworldly dresses had me appreciating the shorter hems and more simplified silhouettes. Thanks to Marchesa for momentarily transporting me to a country that sits at the very top of my travel wish list.
