Indonesian designer Farah Angsana did not disappoint with her S/S 2011 Ready-to-wear collection! She was the first show that I attended on Day 1 of Fashion week and I really loved her collection. Farah’s Ready To Wear collection ranged from embellished micro mini dresses to cascading crystal embellished gowns to tribal prints. Farah’s attention to detail stands out and her collection showed her range as a designer. Farah showcased not only simple print dresses but also elegant eye catching red carpet gowns.
The collection presented an array of shiny, drapey silks in golds and silvers, the likes of which you’d expect on Debra Messing landing at the Globes, lots of fabulously embellished nude Capri-corset suits that would be more at home on a Gwen Stefani or a Scarletty-Scar; some pastelly daytime cocktail numbers for Barbara Bush Jr. and her Jenna twin.
