Giambattista Valli – Spring 2013 Couture

In this collection you can notice that some of the designs distort the hips, I love the concept and Idea behind it, but such a design would not appeal to a woman with curves as it will enlarge her figure. Ann Hathaway chose one of his dresses for the Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG Awards). Take a look  at my favorite pieces from the collection:

Jean Paul Gaultier – Spring 2013 Couture

I felt that his inspiration for this collection was based from Persian and Indian traditional clothing but somehow it was also mixed with modern designs. Take a look for yourself and tell me what you think about it. Here are my favorite pieces out of the collection:

Valentino – Spring 2013 Couture

Below you will find my favorite pieces from the collection, but by far what I love the most were the cape dresses, I also loved the pipping and detailing on the white dresses. I have mentioned yesterday about how capes are this season’s “it” piece, here is another designer that included capes in his collection, so keep an eye on them when shopping. Enjoy!

Zuhair Murad – Spring Couture 2013

I liked Zuhair Murad’s collection due to it’s limited pallet as well as the detailing on the dresses. We have recently seen many cloaks come down the runways, therefore, I believe its one of this year’s must haves, so keep an eye on them while shopping. Below are my favorite looks from the Zuhair Murad Spring 2013 Couture collection. Enjoy!
