J.MENDEL - PRE-FALL 2013

Gilles Mendel is known for his brilliant fabric manipulation and soft flowy evening gowns but this season he went with a more edgier architectural construction.

Here are a few of my favorite looks from the collection.

I'm especially happy to be apart of the J.Mendel design team this season. It is a great honor to work with such a creative group of people and I'm looking forward to working on the Fall collection as well,  
as their Embroidery Designer and Consultant.

JITROIS’ - SPRING 2013 COLLECTION

Designer Jean-Claude Jitrois was inspired by beautiful medieval architecture of churches and stained-glass windows for this collection.

I love the contrast of black embellished leather with soft ivory cutwork embroidery in the first look.

Isn't it all so pretty?

COLORFUL CLUB KIDS - BLACKBOOK MAGAZINE

Love this editorial shot by Jason Kim and styled by Christopher Campbell for Blackbook's 
October-November 2012, Issue 94.

It's seems more Indian inspired with the nose rings, tikka jewelry, colorful prints & embellishments 
than club kids, don't you think?

Have a safe & Happy Halloween!!

NEW YORK CITY

I'm finally back home in New York after a long two months away in Europe. I spent most of my time in London but also was in beautiful Paris and Barcelona.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I've also been busy with a new embroidery consulting project I began last week and the stress from Hurricane Sandy that hit NYC & the East Coast hasn't been motivating. Thankfully our neighborhood was spared but my heart goes out to everyone else that were not so lucky. 
 Stay tuned as I will be posting images from my trip soon, along with more embellishment inspiration!

BALMAIN - RESORT 2013 RUNWAY

Balmain's Collections are always stunning. And for this Resort Season Olivier Rousteing went to a resort in Miami's South Beach for inspiration.

Every detail was influenced by his summery holiday from the surrounding textures, colors, art deco details & architecture. 

Don't you just love this long-sleeved dress with raffia basket-weave embroidery & cutwork?

The fabulous intricate hand beading and embellishments make me want to escape to some exotic place for an inspiration break myself.
