The idea arose from the film White Mischief (1987), which stars Greta Scacchi. The film was set in the forties and it recounts the misadventures of a British aristocrat who has a romance in colonial Kenya.
The line also features clear references to the seventies - an essential trend for the coming season.
We like the brand philosophy - they don't think about urban women or everyday garments, their dresses are pure glamor for special events.
The organza pieces are full of romances and appliques, while their macramé garments have been widely praised.
At the fashion show they combined their haute couture line with their more casual Mark & James brand.
The front row was full of buyers and the media applauded the new line, which blends west and east coast heritage, westerns and Victorian looks.
The line features references to the pioneers who arrived in the U.S., to the Indians and their necklaces with stones and metallic details. There are handmade accessories and belts, and even some exquisite Victorian dresses to take us back to a classic Newport style.
We love the brand's use of arrows, which have invaded their dresses and shirts. It's a line full of elegance and shine.
Israeli bombshell Bar Refaeli is modeling Passionata’s upcoming spring/summer 2010 collection and looks absolutely beautiful all done up like a 1960’s Brigitte Bardot, another blonde bombshell. The pictures were shot by New York photographer Greg Kadel, who did an amazing job at capturing Refaeli as a modern, and summery, pin-up girl.
And not to mention, the lingerie also looks gorgeous. It exudes a girly, bouncy and flirty vibe which is represented by lots of satin bows, crisp printed fabrics, lightweight lace and vivid summer colors. The collection will be available in early 2010.
