Marchesa presents Resort 2013, a collection inspired by delightful childhood memories of an English garden party. While you may not have been attending elegant soirées, you can certainly envision the free imagination and larger-than-life looks of the collection. Colorful cocktail dresses and long evening gowns find a companion in delicate, lightweight tea-length coats. Playful tulle and and laser-cut lace seem faultlessly aligned with mother of pearl accents. Divergent tones of fuchsia and blue with ivory and rose add an element of depth to this enchanting vision of a garden party, a party I’d certainly like to attend!
Alongside the collection, Marchesa designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig will debut a complementary collection of their signature handbags. Day-to-evening bags are structured in vivid exotics, and delicately embellished crystal miniaudieres and envelope clutches remain true to evening wear.
