Cue lights, not collection. Flanked by two large palm trees on each side at the back of the runway, the models strolled to 1950s ‘elvis type’ theme music that proved fitting for one scene of the show, but not all. The collection began on a great note with animal prints in black and white throughout silk tunics, kaftans, wrap dresses, etc. However, the show became a bit confusing with the ‘throw in’ of a bit of sunday church suit here, and multi-color beaded dresses there (something reminiscent of what your hipper than Barry Manilow, but older than Sophia Loren’ grandmother might wear on a night in Vegas), a desert theme that paired shorts with open blouses (a bit to open to be targeted to the mature consumer), and the finale of simple beaded wedding dresses in two opposite styles for that special day. Maybe the finale should have been consistency within the collection or originality…just a thought.
