Using simple construction lines and the hourglass figure, she definitely knows how to highlight the woman’s figure, “It’s sexy, without being cheap”. Her designs are always well-tailored combined with exquisite choice of fabrics and color palette. Most of her collection showcased a whole range from basic daily items to cocktail dresses. Containing design-purpose details such as gathers, deep cowls, the infamous princess-line, she keeps it effortless but eye-catching. She knows what women wants, to look elegant and being the "center-of-attention" without going through the hassle of wearing something uncomfortable or too revealing. |
