“THE RAYON JERSEY DRESS”

…………….This deceivingly simple dress is MODERN and TIMELESS…..Almost 20 years old it can be worn today with confidence! The scoop neckline combined with a sleeve WITHOUT an armhole brought it to a higher level of design.

“THE FEBRUARY 2013 LINEA COLLECTION-PART ONE”

…………………..There were two Linea shows in February 2013. The CAD above features the main show. It comprised of EIGHT NEW PIECES and THREE REORDER PIECES……Starting at the top left of the new items….there was a semi sheer jacquard single button jacket. It had the effect of a “burn out” knit. Next was a clip dot georgette blouse with a self bow tie. Next and just below, the Crepe suit. The jacket had three buttons and many body seams to give it a perfect fit.. Next is the WK Tank with the waist whittling ribs on the torso to the hem. On the second row at the left is a drawstring dress in a jacquard Ponte knit. The pattern at the hem started as a solid and then graduated upward with a speckle pattern…..almost like a birds egg. It was an easy relaxed dress and the drawstring was pulled through metal grommets……Next, the Faux De Chine pleated skirt with a hip yoke…..Lastly, the Ponte knit stripe cardigan with the cascade front. There were to be other pieces that worked with this open front cardigan……Among the reorders was a tiered georgette skirt with a pleated hem……a WK Mock TN with an elbow sleeve, and a Hounds Tooth check jacquard cotton swing jacket. It had three quarter sleeves with a turn back cuff and a stand collar that also could be turned back……………February was always the official start to Spring.
