Dresses of white and blue chiffon opened the show. Every piece was uniquely detailed - each tasteful and not exaggerated. Models were presented like lotus blossoms taken out of the water.

Then came the white and red striped suits with a Scottish flair. Figure hugging office wear was followed by dresses featuring architectural designs. There were floral print pieces emphasizing sweetness and femininity.

There was a roman influence in blue and grey. These presented a look of maturity, with bouquet-like frontal designs dotted with rhinestones.

The black evening dresses and gowns created a mystical aura about the wearer. Among the works were some stellar pieces featuring Chinese ink paintings.

Dresses with yellow and black stripes, lattice and dots rounded out the show, recalling the spirited heart of the wilderness.
