When fashion week season comes around you expect a little bit of drama. When the fashion world awaits a new season collection from Marchesa they expect nothing short of a theatrical spectacle. Keren Craig and Georgina Chapman did not disappoint. The pair looked East for inspiration, taking on Bollywood and took it to the New York. The whole collection was a feast for the senses with silk, tulle, embellishments galore, all with hints of style taken from Indian culture. As per usual the gowns were Oscar ready and I can see this whole collection becoming a fast red carpet favourite. 
Personal favourites were the stunning dark blue gown set off with gold embroidered detail around the bust [I can definitely see the celebs fighting to get a hold of that one] and this amazing fringed scarlet gown, set off with matching blood red beading.

Very rarely do the little things matter so much to a collection but Marchesa have paid just as much attention to the smaller detailing of their styling this season. Gold was the metal of choice here and it dripped off everything from necklaces to bejewelled clutches to the corners of the model’s eyes. 

Who’ll be wearing it?…Penelope Cruz, Leighton Meester, Emma Stone, Camilla Belle, Katy Perry, Freida Pinto, Lily Collins

Keep on wishing…
