I know it's a shame for someone who blogs about fashion to admit, but I JUST discovered Brazilian Fashion designer Carlos Miele. His runway shows feature ready-to-wear fashion unlike most other designers, which I'm in love with.His look is best defined as "highly structured and busy pieces, bold color combinations, plenty of patchwork, bias-cut sheer gowns, clingy silhouettes, plunging necklines, low backs, and jagged hemlines open to the thigh." (NY mag).
While watching the runway show I noticed his designs indeed include alot of simple looking dresses which gorgeous fabrics, spiced things up with very sexy, plunging back lines in intricate designs.
Another trend in this Fall/Winter 2008 collection his the use of greys paired with various shades of green and ruffles.
Check out clips from the runway show (; it's so worth the look because you get to see the backs..); it's divided in 2 parts below.
