Details ranging from feathers, fur coats made with money bills, and shoes with cat ears are combined with fabrics of leopard prints, organza, silk crepe, wool and jacquard to create the feminine silhouettes in predominantly feminine hues.

The result, a glamorous couture collection that doesn’t take itself too seriously, yet conveys a sense of adventure.
