"Lhuillier doesn't do excess. Everything must be just right. Therefore, heavy embellishment—richly embroidered velvet and all-over cabochon-jeweled embroidery—came in clean silhouettes. Alternatively, the exaggerated ruffle on a gold cocktail dress meant no embellishment."
"A flapper, one with a smoldering, smoky look, served as the inspiration for Monique Lhuillier's fall collection. The clothes she wore this time around weren't an exact copy of the styles of the 1920s but they had the right spirit: fun and sexy."
As for us, we like, not love. It's a very basic and basically pretty collection of mostly red carpet-ready, drapey-draped gowns and dresses rendered in rich fall colors with the occasional interesting embellishment. We don't really like the bedazzled bits. We didn't like them when they were the hot thing and we like them even less now that they're about a season behind us. She played a bit with silhouettes and we like the gathered skirts, the lumpy (faux?) fur coat and the tweed jacket and coat with the (faux?) fur trim. It's not reinventing the wheel and it's mostly the kind of fashion that bores us generally, but it's pretty and wearable.
What do our bitches think?
