New Zealand based designer flies in to showcase at off-schedule LFW Show ‘A La Mode’

Chrystal Sloane, the New Zealand luxury label known for their beautiful designs aimed at real women with an impeccable fit, will be flying into London to showcase their latest Autumn Winter 2010/11 collection as part of the LGN Events off-schedule London Fashion Week show.

The event entitled ‘A La Mode’ is now in it’s 3rd season and will take place at the prestigious Charing Cross Hotel in Central London on Friday 19 Feb 2010 from 7.30pm – just a stone’s throw away from the official LFW venue, Somerset House.

Chrystal Sloane Designs only creates a limited number of each piece in the collection which make them extra special for customers who want to own an exquisite fashion piece inspired by the timeless 40’s style and glamour.

Their Autumn/Winter collection is inspired by glamorous sirens of the 30’s and 40’s like Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich’s evening attire gave an amazing direction for the collection. Exquisitely embossed, sequined and embroidered fabrics are some of the textures for cocktail and evening attire as well as beautiful soft silks for elegant blouses and feminine dresses with full skirts and to figure hugging styles with godets around the hemline. The fabrics are flirtatious and rich and stretch beautifully over the contours of the body. All wrapped up with capes and fur jackets to add the finishing touch for that very special occasion.

The decedent collection will certainly be a key talking point of this seasons’ LFW programme.
