Inspired by international nightlife and its glamorous appeal, Reem Acra’s collection was nothing short of fabulous. From the first embroidered black bias cut chiffon lace-up detail dress that came down the runway to the applique black tulle ball gown that closed the show. With base-pumping disco music blasting through the speakers, for a moment it felt like we time-traveled back to the seventies and we were at Studio 54 on a Saturday night. Reem Acra’s take on global style is dead on with sexy sleek cuts and her use of luxe fabrics. A well-traveled woman will be drawn to the spring collection for its vivid colors of poppy red and orange as well as the mix of classic patterns like houndstooth and polka dots.
There was a bevy of dresses with bias cuts, sexy deep v-necklines, and high splits. Reem Acra’s use of chiffon on jackets, skirts, and gowns gave a light airy feel to the alluring seductive collection. Once the models did their final walk, all you heard was the crowd cheering and shaking their heads up and down as a gesture of approval at the impressive spring collection. Too bad, we are just gearing up for fall, because any woman would be ready to wear those dresses now.
