I always love seeing Ines' collection for its beauty, decadence and glamour. For Spring / Summer 2013, Ines di Santo told Merci New York that she was captivated by one of Europe's most romantic cities... Known as the "Queen of the Adriatic", Venice, and more specifically the city's annual Carnevale, inspired Ines with its ornate masks, exuberant spirit and graceful grandeur.
That inspiration certainly shown through when I viewed the collection on the runway... Reminiscent of the fashions of Italy's opulent Baroque Era, the dresses were were rich with jeweled embroidery, infusions of color and feminine elegance. Take a peek!
The above gown was my absolute favorite of the collection - I just adored those beautiful bow straps dipped in crystal elegance! {And I so -semi secretly- want one of our bridal styling clients to buy this gown}! Scroll down to see the rest of the Ines di Santo Spring 2013 line... Dreamy gowns of blush silk gazar gave way to rich macrame and alecon lace appliques... And those laser cut layers of organza? Divine!
