The fabric, though it was pretty typical for a high-end collection, was fantastic. Some of the dresses were really beautiful, though they are what made up most of the collection and some of the stiff-with-sparkle pieces weren't too wonderful. Some of the pieces that weren't evening dresses were wishful-thinking semi-transparent trousers (and did I see a jump-suit?).
The prints weren't favourable for me but I did like the finale gown, a shirt-dress, with a very pleasing subtle floral print.
One of the dresses I liked:

I really can't decide whether I love or hate this collection. I'm not a fan of candy colors at all and there were lots of them in this show, but for some reason I couldn't help but think of fairies and princesses when looking at it and it's somehow really beautiful but cheesy and almost tacky at the same time.
 
Just saw the collection on zimbio.com and it´s breathtaking. More than just beautiful. The details, colors, softness, just perfect.
Reminds me a lot of Versace but that´s not a bad compliment.
 
I liked a few pieces in the beginning, but the dresses were completely unflattering, and looked rather cheap.
