Unfortunate he’s one of those names that’s immediately dismissed like a knee-jerk reaction, when this offering has some solidly impressive designs— very Riccardo’s Givenchy in some places, but all traditionally-beautiful in Eli's signature. But more impressive, is the astounding combination of old-world techniques used for the embellishments on some of these designs that’s a testament to the stunning craftsmanship and skilled dressmaking construction all so gorgeously flattering to the wearer. The rosebud designs I could do without, but needless to say he knows his ME clientele well. Who cares about Hollywood red carpet when these will all be eagerly scooped up by ME princesses.
The best of this are literally glittering, shimmering jewels and still look light as a feather.
