The Lovely Bows...

Designers went ultra-feminine this season, and placed bows everywhere. From oversized to tiny, they look playful on cocktail dresses, full skirts, jumpsuits, shoes, bags, and other accessories. In summer clothing, bows are found on necklines, the waist, the bustline, the hair, and the occasional shoulder.

A sign of sophistication and attractiveness, bows easily showcase this season’s new romantic love affair.

Booked a time for costumes for the evening gent men then relegated to the rank of bauble for prepubertal midinettes, the bow tie has been some time now to regain trim fashion.

the flying circus picture puts the bow out of the beaten tracks, Coco and Masha have this ability to themselves as well...

The Prada pullover is heavenly nice, very subtle, simple and kooky, same for Vallis's blackdress !! great post
