“THE BLACK DRESS”

ivory blazer11

……………………..”THE BLACK DRESS”…..or to be specific…………The “LBD”……….A254318……….This dress will be first presented on MAY 5th, during PM Style. It is made in my RAYON/SPAN fabric. I say my rayon/span, because this is the particular quality of rayon/span I always use. I am not aware of anyone else on QVC using this specific quality….This is a superior fabric because  fine yarns are used to achieve this weight which equates to a smoother, and more costly fabric………..The dress has a FIT & FLARE” shape which  is created through the use of princess seams, and a slightly empire seam to give a nice torso shaping and flow to the skirt…..It has a COWL NECKLINE, but not overly draped, just enough to create a nice soft neckline which can still accommodate long necklaces beautifully. I would think this would be a good dress for all of my “pears” and probably my “apples” too…I would recommend ordering you normal Linea size since I am not aware of it running large or small, but always check your click here measurements….For me, the sweep of the skirt is perfectly balanced, not too much and not too little………..The LENGTH OF THE DRESS is approx. 40″ to 40 1/2″ ……….This is really an all purpose dress…..an all or no occasion dress………Worn with a jacket, shrug or cardigan, you can wear it to work or a night out…..a wedding….graduation….anywhere…………A great TRAVEL DRESS?….YES…..packable and machine washable. A FOUR SEASONS DRESS?…..YES……Wear it now in the spring and throughout the summer with a pointed toe black patent sling back heel………………come fall…….a black sheer hose…yes I said sheer……….an opaque………or even a “FANCY’….maybe it’s time for you to experiment………just for the fun of it!……..I saw three young girls the other day wearing short shorts and all were in fancy hose……fashion does trickle up from the streets to main stream….it’s definitely happening………….When OLD MAN WINTER comes back, and we know he will………get out the black opaque tights and beautiful suede or calf boots……………There really is no end to the ways you can wear and accessorize this dress……I have chosen two strands of my J284043, gray glass faceted bead, 72 inch necklace with the J284042 matching drop earring…..The gray is the only color this necklace is still avail in, but I’m sure not for long……….a heads up…..there will be  GRAY FOR FALL, and this necklace is going to be “KEY” to finishing the look……………………………….scroll down………………………………………..enjoy………………………much Love………………………………….Louis

“THE GERANIUM PINK DRESS”

…………………..The GERANIUM PINK DRESS…………….I wish I could have captured the beauty of this color in a photo, but unfortunately I could not capture the “glow”. To say it is a flattering color would be a major understatement……………………I think this color looks very RICH & SOPHISTICATED with the contrast of the gray accessories….the bold hoop hearing in the GUNMETAL…..two strands of my GRAY PEARLS, J264035….and the new PIN in the HEMATITE with the GRAY PEARL in the center….give a very dramatic look…………..For a cover up I chose my PEWTER DRAPED FRONT WK CARDIGAN, a237402, but the sizes are very limited. I know there are many of you who will look absolutely beautiful in this dress in this special color!…………………….enjoy…………………..much Love……………………………………..Louis

“THE BLACK CAP SLEEVE “T” & DRAPED SKIRT”

Palm Jewelry15

…………I am INTRODUCING a brand NEW fabric in two new styles…..THE CAP SLEEVE “T”, A254436, and THE PULL-ON DRAPED SKIRT, A254438. If I were to compare this new jersey fabric to anything I’ve already done it would have to be the Feather Jersey, because of the WEIGHT and DRAPE of the fabric. This new knitted fabric is a blend of……..49% RAYON/42% POLY/ 9% SPAN. It has a very smooth, silky LUXURIOUS hand. It is not clingy at all……the PERFECT FABRIC for SPRING and especially for the SUMMER months ahead……………FYI the cap sleeve top is already posted and ready for ordering. I know when you get one you will want ALL of the colors…. The color is called……BLACK…..which may be confusing since it look gray, but if you look at the close up of the fabric you will see it is actually a VERY FINE STRIPE of BLACK & WHITE…..so optically it become a PALE  SILVERY GRAY, but it is really black and white….hence the name…………….I think the top has a very flattering PIPED NECKLINE and the  perfect PIPED CAP SLEEVE……….these will be terrific summer “T” shirts ……perfect to pack, no wrinkles and WASHABLE……perfect TRAVEL PIECES…………….The DRAPED SKIRT has a full elastic waist band with plenty of stretch, but notice in the photos above how flat and smooth it is…..no SHIRRING to add any bulk. It lays flat over the upper hip and then flares to the hem creating wonderful CONES, as they are called in the business. The sweep is luxurious with out being over done. It has beautiful movement when you walk. This skirt is unlined….no need for one……lighter and cooler that way. From the pictures above you can see the many ways I have MIXED & MATCHED these two pieces…..many of the pieces you may already own…………………..FIRST….it makes a marvelous two piece dress…..for all and any occasion…..work….play or an evening out….you will be tempted to dance in this skirt!……..I have the skirt with the BLACK WK V-NECK SWEATER with the 3/4 sleeve [one of my favorites], A251583….I have accessorized this outfit with one of my FAVORITE necklaces….the GLASS 72 INCH FACETED BEAD NECKLACE in the….GREY….the only color left in inventory….to my surprise……The WHITE WK V-NECK SHORT SLEEVE, A233944, and the YELLOW DENIM VEST, A252356, worn over for a splash of summer color a skinny black patent belt [ebay], and my BOLD GOLD HOOP, again the only color still avail……For my KATE SHIRT LOVERS, A214116. This skirt and shirt has a definite 50’s vibe….with the wide black patent belt, black patent ballet flats or sandals…..you can’t be more classic or  modern than that…….The “T” over the IVORY CREPE pant, A253576 or my WHITE JEANS is a very COOL and refreshing way to look……in the evening throw the black CLASSIC cardigan or the OPEN FRONT KIMONO cardigan over all of it…..I just know you are going to fall in love with this wonderful new fabric………………………scroll down……………………………..enjoy……………………much Love…………………………Louis
