Every so often I'll be adding new photos as samples are finished. Meet Cosette, the newest member of the Spring/Summer 2008 collection; a silk chiffon and crepe empire with peau d'ange lace at the bodice. There's a sweep train and the gray satin ribbon is a sash all the way down the back. This gown was inspired by a dress I saw in Follow the Fleet, a 1935 Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers flick. When the 'Cosette' design first started going round in my head, I envisioned it on a bride at an outdoor garden wedding. But I think 'Cosette' would also look awesome at a cocktail or evening wedding. As far as the head chic goes, you have so many options with this gown: flowers in the hair, a snood, a veil of almost any legnth . . . .
