Leave your jewels at home
Bedazzle with darling crystals encrusted in your gown…
Exuding effortless sophistication and delicate attention-to-detail, designers added crystals and beading directly to their pieces for Spring / Summer 2012.
Crystal embellishments added texture and shine to the runways and replaced the need for dangling earrings or statement necklaces. At Chanel, iridescent pearls were sewn exquisitely into gowns, while at Christopher Kane crystal flowers encased the body with dainty feminine beauty. At Sass and Bide embellishment took a walk on the wild side, with beaded tribal patterns peaking visual interest.
Perfect for a modern take on day-time glamour, embellishment around the neckline is fresh, fun and simply… sparkling!
Will you frame your face with crystal embellishment? xx

All That Glitters
Are you a Glitter Bug? Bring some glistening light into your wardrobe with sparkling sequins.
Like shimmering iridescent mermaids or twinkling disco dancers, sequins add an unmistakable sparkle to your style.
Seen on the Spring / Summer runways of Elie Saab, Christopher Kane, Givenchy, and more; this is a classic embellishment too pretty to sprinkle. Embrace these delicate metallic plates from head-to-toe. From this season’s must-have accessory – Miu Miu’s glittery heels (pictured top) to Elie Saab’s glamorously chic bejewelled evening gowns (pictured above); sequins are a timeless feel-go fashion favourite.
And sequins needn’t only come out at night. Case in point: Anna Dello Russo’s extraordinary emerald green Dolce and Gabbana Dress (pictured top).
