All That Shimmers
We all love a little sparkle in our lives and this winter we are sure to shine! However, this season there is a certain subtlety to add to the mix, with delicate gem-work scattered across casual clothing, making this trend daytime approved. The craftsmanship and luxury is embedded in the embellishment rather than the clothing, as demonstrated by Prada, Giambattista Valli, Louis Vuitton and Dries Vannoten.
