A fashion piece notes winter velvet and corduroy gowns remain stylish as spring nears. Velvet dresses with lace and diamanté trim, military braiding, and mixed satin brocade designs are praised for elegance and versatility, with bright color combinations and real lace favored.
The season showcases gold and platinum mesh bags studded with diamonds or pearls. Prices reach up to 4500 dollars for the finest pieces, with many bags costing at least 500 dollars. Styles include round small purses, mixed metals, and varied jewel patterns. Pearl and diamond collars on platinum wire replace silk strings, and canary diamond collars appear in elaborate designs.
The observed style notes focus on how a skirt’s drapery may tuck under the waist and hang in long loose lines if it suits the wearer.
