Inspired by a trip to Sedona, Ariz., Theia designer Don O’Neill worked the landscape’s rich colors — greens, blues, pops of fuchsia — into a lineup of ball gowns and party dresses that incorporated earthy ikat and Navajo prints. “The reds are intense,” O’Neill said of the region’s sandstone rock formations. “And I was particularly taken by the cactus rose against this green, barren desert.” He fashioned the flower print onto several silk faille and jacquard looks, some of which were equipped with pockets and open backs for a sexy, youthful edge.
