Day 3 of SA Fashion Week, Winter Collections, was rounded off with a new, delicate and fresh collection from Bulgarian born designer Vesselina.
Her usual tailoring and attention to detail was showcased in soft flesh colours and flimsy fabric, teamed with mustardy chartreuse stockings and shoes.
Revived colours of pale lime greens, pinks and purples was combined together to create a wardrobe fit for any princess.
The conversation around me that I happened to eavesdrop on was exclamations of wonder at the ultimate indulgence in romance, the beauty of weddings and even Matric dances.
Obsessed with detail Vesselina brought out a range so skillfully finished that her range became unique - like a fingerprint - only to Vesselina.
It was so fresh because of the young fleshy colours she used and the indulgence in netting and voile combinations. Silk chiffon, Corseting, mohair, embroidery and satin, were some of the combinations of fabrics she used.
There were reminders of why its ever-so-sexy to show off a little cleavage - elegantly mind you.
The beauty of the rose, jewels and french lace pulsated through my mind as each outfit outweighed the previous.
Even the make up was graceful. Brown and maroon hue with hair tied back in buns, and straight french fringes.
Words like: fleeting moments, light, soft, subtle and meringue come to mind
I felt like I was being graced by the honour of famous ballerinas like Margot Fonteyn
and actresses like Grace Kelly in Loveboat and Kirsten Dunst in Marie Antoinette.
There was a sense of overwhelming royalty, gracefulness, elegance and flamboyancy.
It made you want to fall in love again, become a princess and live in a fairytale.
