Carlotta Actis Barone
Fashion Mode - 17 . 09 . 11
Italian born designer Carlotta Actis Barone presented her S/S12 collection as part of the Fashion Mode runway show. After studying Print at Central Saint Martins and working at design houses Max Azria Manoukian and Balmain, she was bound to have the experience to back up a pretty good collection and boy she did! There was an oriental feel to the styling, especially when the first model walked out with a huge headpiece covered in flowers and tassels. The clothing, mainly dresses, were beautiful with draped fabric and brilliantly bright coloured digital prints. The shoes were also amazing although i couldn't get a clear photo of them, they were the typical high platform 'hooker heels' with oriental flowers making them more 'high fashion'.
The finale dress was this beautiful antique ivory wedding gown with a flower headpiece and silk tulle veil.
