Satin et Lacet 2010

Taking inspiration from the reels of film noir, the collection fuses the romantic elements of satin and lace with deep, dark plums and black. Silhouettes fit for a dainty princess are given a hard edge, transforming the look into one most becoming a princesse sombre. Pale gold and yellow lace lightens the outward impression of our femme fatale, but satin with a metallic sheen adds grit and mystique.

GISELE: A sweetheart neckline and a waist-cinching trumpet skirt cast off all traces of innocence in this predominantly lace gown.

MARIE: Deep, rich midnight blue satin lends a razor-sharp edge to delicate lace.

EMILIE: Black lace and deep plum satin for a diabolique, mysterious feel

HELENE: Femme Mystérieuse. Seductive. Dangereux.

COSETTE: Slivers of grayish lilac break up the monotony but not the l’humeur noire.

SABINE: Tough but sweet, perhaps the collection’s raison d’être
