Reem Acra Spring 2009
September 11th, 2008
Reem went back in time to a palace where women dressed in opulent fabrics, some with semi-precious stones and dresses that felt like one of a kind. She told me that the dress has been a focus for the past couple of seasons, and as her expertise it continued strongly in this collection. The geometric embroidered shirt dress with deep notch collar looked very intricate and magical with all the beading. More simplistic was the raspberry and tangerine charmeuse wrap dress with a blouson back or the sunshine elaborate French cuffed pleated dress that gave her clientele a more understated option. This collection was about gold, shine, Lurex and iridescent fabrics and for the lady who appreciates an artistic approach to evening.
