Prabal Gurung…top class fashion design
I daresay there are many of you who haven’t heard the name of Prabal Gurung. At which point I can ony quote Al Murray’s catchphrase “Shame on you…Shame on you…” Prabal’s creations as a fashion designer are cherished by the US societal “greats” such as politicians wifes and TV show hosts e.g. Michelle Obama, Demi Moore, and Oprah Winfrey etc, etc. As well as devoting time on his own signature line, Gurung also finds the time to be the design director at Bill Blass. Needless to say, this new kid on the “fashion block” will be going places.
Prabal Gurung is delivering a class act, delivering the number one key element in my book, that of artistic quality. Quality that will stand this work out from the rest, Prabal is an A- list designer.
Just take a look at the subtlety of the patterns between each segment , it creates an effortless flow down the dress, easy on the eye, and easy on the wearer. Using a very thin belt to give you the added waistline without distracting the eye from the overall image.
Prabal’s dresses are light, having an integral life of their own as they respond to your bodies movement.With today’s sun shining down, these would be ideal for your Spring and Summer collections.
I often ask the question ”what is the attraction for black dresses? “, simply answered, they are beautiful.This one would be envied by all, just look at the movement. All I need now is a Champagne bar with a pianist tickling the ivories in the background. But for me, I would love this colour block dress to give me that wow factor, such a great juxtaposition of colours.
Take care, see you soon.
