Few things are worthy of mention, and when I do see those that are (which I somehow have a penchant of getting to) I can't help talk about them.Have a look at these spectacular dresses, hand-dyed with exquisite embellishment works.Subtle play with sequin tones, black on black, or dramatic Deco styled details.The height of what I sort of wanted for a men's dress shirt look.Anyway, feast ur eyes at these. She's dressed A-list celebrities such as Catherine Zeta Jones, Angelina Jolie and the likes. Dressy, classy, flashy yet feminine and oh-so-exciting altogether.Thanks for inspiring us.pictures by Fashion Wire Daily.
I went to the Reem Acra Showroom to view her Pre-Fall 2008 Collection. It was a delight to be among the designer Reem Acra herself and being around all those stunning hand beaded detail gowns. I probably stayed in her showroom close to an hour looking in depth at all her gowns especially the detailing, Reem notice that so she came up to me and said, "It's good that you're looking at the details, it's good."Reem Acra Pre-Fall 2008 CollectionYou can read my review for the collection and see the pictures here (the page is in Spanish)

Fashion Week is quickly coming to a close but I've been attending tons of shows and am hastily writing to bring you updates on what's haute for Spring 2008!Acra's ultra-feminine frocks were glossed up with bright colors and shiny fabrics. Her Spring collection primarily consisted of dresses and separates, in hues of canary yellow, emerald green, and bright purple. Eye-catching color combinations were the theme - green and yellow punched up with purple; red and white floral printed dresses with wide colored belts; shimmering gowns. Nearly every piece in the collection was accessorized with a belt, with the exception of the gowns. Gowns were red carpet ready, with form fitting bodices, plunging beaded necklines, and voluminous skirts. The gowns were less ostentatious in terms of color - the designer stuck to off white, lavender and black.Overall, the collection was a beautiful array of flowing, colorful dresses, not for every day, but for the woman with somewhere to go. I expect to se
The dresses that came the runway was absolutely gorgeous. "Keeping the looks fresh and ethereal with a modern touch" was the definitely the point. I am a person who loves the color black eventhough black isn't consider a color. What I loved this spring collection is the mixture of color on eveningwear. By the look whatr Reem Acra did you can either wear a vibrant and bold color or give the dress more of a pop by adding a green belt to it.

So it looks like the metallic trend is going to be with us for the entirity of 2007. And I'm quite happy about it. As I've mentioned in my (many) previous posts on silvers and golds and all things shiny, I do find muted metals very flattering for skin, and more liquid style metals are great on small bags and accessories (I'm still dying for a silver miroir Pochette). One designer who really latched onto the metallics trend is Reem Acra. Her collections are essential evening and bridal wear, with a bit of daywear, and some of the pieces in the current collections are really gorgeous. All designers claim to pay great attention to detail (in order to justify the often ludicrous price tags), but in Acra's case this does appear to be true. She has a lot of embroidery (which I have to admit I'm not hugely keen on), and the clothes look quality and luxe. Style: classic romantic and feminine, but with more than a touch of glamour and modernity. Sounds good, right? Have a look at some of m
