Rosanna Isham

Collection: “Elegant Acquaintance”

Rosanna IshamThe concept of my collection was a return to modest femininity. I wanted to make garments that would show off how beautiful the female body can be without actually showing it. I have always had an attraction to the 1950s and everything about it. I especially loved the old Hollywood glam scene and wanted to put a modern twist on some classic pieces. It is a youthful, elegant line with many slender and A-line silhouettes. The main fabrics used will be taffeta with velvet flocking, cotton-polyester blends for the pants, velvet for the coat and organza for the sheer blouses. Details include pick-ups, beading and pleating.
