………………………Cinco de Mayo…………………Happy Birthday Baby…………………..a perfect day in Anguilla

…………………………The STATUS PRINT TUNIC, A378731, is my newest print top. This classic pattern is usually called a “status print”. These types of patterns have been printed on very expensive silk twill for scarves. Hermes first made them popular, and  anyone familiar with Hermes scarves knows they are extremely expensive and are considered a “status” thing to own and wear. Versace made them very popular also, and took them from the conservative status realm into the high fashion world…..They have just made a big statement on the most recent Versace runway……..My print is a wonderful combination of solid areas, Baroque swirls, Medallions, Zebra and Baby Leopard patterns…..The ENGINEERED layout of these elements contours and carves the body to create a slimming effect……”smoke and mirrors”. The colors are simple, black, white and shades of gold…The blackened areas at the side and the curved patterns help to create a “waist shape”. The V design at the top frames, and brings attention to the face. The fabric is my polyester/span that I have used for years. It has the hand of a silk jersey and GLIDES over the body without any cling. The top does have a slight shape. It has a flattering JEWEL neckline, LONG sleeves, and a STRAIGHT bottom….The size XXS is aprox. 29 inches long. As you all know who own this fabric….it is easy care and practically wash and wear. For trips it packs into nothing and comes out of the suitcase with nary a wrinkle………This is a top that can be enjoyed ALL YEAR LONG………I love the idea of accessorizing this subtle ANIMAL print with the new ELEPHANT PENDANT with the IVORY TABLETS, and the separate IVORY TABLET NECKLACE and the coordinating IVORY EARRING……This tunic is very CHIC, and looks 10 times more than the actual cost……That’s always a good thing!………………I hope you enjoy it……………….much Love……………………..Louis

………………………….The INDIA PINK ….. is the second color being offered in the Status Print tunic…..To be absolutely transparent this is more like a fuchsia and does not match the India Pink Shantung. Even though the print mill was given the India Pink as a standard they just couldn’t match it. As I have said the shantung dyes like no other fabric!….This India Pink is a very saturated color and has the same black, ivory and golds for the details. I have it shown with my white CAPRI pant A351410…….I have used the Sand Dollar Pendant, and the White Elephant Walk and Tablet pieces to accessorize……When everything calms down I think this would be perfect top to go out in, and have a wonderful dinner to celebrate!!!!!……………….enjoy……much Love………Louis

………………………..The third color being offered in the Status Print tunic is……..TURQUOISE………………It’s a beautiful color and works well with the new Elephant pendant and Tablet pieces in the Turquoise…..Bottoms are easy………anything in black or white…..If you happened to have a turquoise bottom in your closet that works….that’s even better!……………..enjoy……………….much Love………….Louis
