True Romance

I am a bit of romantic and I can definitely say there was some romance in the air at the spring summer catwalk shows. I have fallen in love with this trend already. The beautiful sheer fabrics, soft tones of pink and white, the frothy frou- frou frills, swishing skirts and gorgeously feminine details.

At Rodarte the dresses had a fairy tale quality with the diaphanous swathes of fabric

At John Galliano, dresses were frilly and pink with inspiration taken from the 1930’s.

At Roberto Cavalli seventies boho style dresses featured romantic lace and broiderie anglais detail.

At Zac Posen the floor length ruffled dress was dream like and just pure romance.

The romantic trend is a great look for summer parties, balls or proms. If you fancy a bit of romance yourself try this lovely tiered party dress by Sara Berman.
