For Collection 5, I found myself reminiscing about my favorite memories and how lights can change your perception of a recollection. Whether it is man-made lights for cinematic red carpet moments, twinkling cities visible from an airplane or phenomena created from the Earth, like the aurora borealis. These lights shimmer across the skies and can be seen from miles away. There’s something quite beautiful about it. I found myself in a reverie thinking about these scenes.
For this Demi-Couture eveningwear collection, I explored the colors of the aurora borealis, ranging from the deepest plums to the lightest feather grays. There are a multitude of silhouettes throughout the collection including my signature grand tulle and exposed corsets to modern, floor dusting gowns with grandiose bows finished with photogenic trains. Inspired by the dark skies, a strapless gown’s trim is reminiscent of day breaking through night. The collection finishes with a fresh exploration of dramatic hand draped armlet details that mimic the shape of clouds.
There’s a sense of romanticism in the styles which are created with the softest, most lush silks, to intricate Guipure lace dusted crystals shining like stars in the abyss. This collection is truly opulent and creates a reverie.
