The 1920s French Riviera
Where elegant gowns are the nightly dress code
Badgley Mischka travels to the elegant 1920s French Riviera, where gowns are the nightly dress code.
Summary:
Skip the boring mix of day dresses, random bathing suits, and "interesting" silhouettes — yes the tulip sounds like a romantic skirt one would want to own until it's rendered in merciless purple silk with exaggerated draping right at the hips — and stick with the fabulous gowns. Confections to savor come in an array of tasty colors including elegant pink, ivory, sophisticated dove gray, black (of course), and shimmery molten silver.
Color Palette: Ivory, white, pale gray, royal purple, white ombre'ing into aqua and cobalt, florals, chartreuse, shimmery silver, black and white, black, elegant pink.
Textures & Details: Tulle overlays, striking '20s epaulet shoulders; strong body-hugging decorative Art Deco lines intersecting and curving like parentheses past the waist to the floor and under the bust for the most flattering of hourglass looks.
Key Looks: White column with Egyptian-style beaded jewel neckline and asymmetrical oversize floral print at the hem; dove-gray floor-length gown with '20s-style epaulet cap sleeve; vibrantly elegant pink gown.
