AZUL - Blossoms
I have been waiting for this incredible gown! It is called Blossoms and is named after and was worn by the beautiful and sweet Blossoms Sweetwater, MVW China 2011, in the MVW pageant. This impressive dress is the creation of Mami Jewell of Azul. I love lavender and chose to blog this color of the gown. A dark lavender lace bolero with a high collar and frilled lace long sleeves, the gorgeous pale lavender bodice, strapless and low cut, hugging the body until you get to the sculpted skirt, V waist and lovely soft dark lavender petals cascading from the side of the waist around the hips. Then the gorgeous sheer silk skirt, trimmed with beautiful lace flowers that gracefully trickle to the ground completing this luscious gown.
I needed to zoom in close so you can see the very detailed sculpted petals with their blending shades of lavender and the way the sit. This must have taken hours just to create this portion of the gown. You can also see the details in the bodice and almost feel the boning that would hold up the gown. It looks like rays of light are moving through the sheer skirt as well. So ravishing! Blossoms comes in Aqua, Lavender, Noir, Peach and Snow.
You can wear this dazzling gown with or without the flower prim skirt and bolero, as you can see both ways are fabulous. This way is softly elegant. The skirt moves like a dream, swirling and falling slowly back into place, its so lovely to watch. I completed my look with hair from PurpleMoon called Daz in Chocolate, Son!a Jewelry called Freeda diamond and the bracelet is Autumn in silver 2 rows and Stiletto Moody's Bare Katherine in White.
AZUL - Sakura
Another stunning design from Mami Jewell of Azul. This one named Sakura was also worn for the MVW pageant by Blossoms Sweetwater, Miss China for her National Costume. I chose the Jade version of the gown, the luscious color caught my attention and just looked so spring with the promise of all the green trees, grass. The gown is a pear white straight cut strapless, with the beautiful jade Obi around the waist trimmed with a long gold bow. The sensational long coat made with layers of the sheer green and Asian patterned silk, fit perfectly, its high collar, sculpted ornamental shoulders and long wrapped and flowing sleeves, elegantly draping the arms.
Close up you can see the incredible detailed patterning in the outfit, the lush greens complimenting the jade and the perfect collar flowing behind. You can wear this gown with a long coat or a shorter one, it looks amazing with either! The colors are so beautiful and they really add to the superior design.
The Gown can be worn with just the Obi and gold bow, giving the white a punch of gorgeous color and elegance that could be worn to any formal occasion. I styled this with Luck from Earthstone, a very simple color change necklace and earring set. My hair is from Tukinowagama and is called Francesca in Ebony also with color change hair ornament. My shoes are Bare Katherine in White by Stiletto Moody. Sakura comes in several bold, beautiful colors, Amethyst, Jade, Garnet, Onyx, Sapphire and Topaz.
PURPLEMOON - Mystery
The new Purplemoon design, Mystery, is such a beautiful Vintage piece! By now you all know I love Vintage!!! This dress is so my style and is so reminiscent of what you would have seen on Hollywood starlets of the past. Poulet creates incredible designs that have a vintage modern style, I love how she can combine the two elements to make her designs so unique and fabulous! She also uses the most beautiful reds, this one called Cherry is so deep but has that glossy shiny element that just makes the black lace overlay pop and adds a bit of elegant drama to this incredible mermaid cut gown. The feather stole finishes off this piece with flair and glamor and is available in faded pink, green, white and black.
I styled my look with Pearl Rain in Onyx from Mandala as it too has that combination classic vintage with a modern touch. and with PurpleMoon's Zoe in earth tones, I love the way this style frames the face and it can be worn with the accompanying hair sticks to give it a little Asian flair!
PurpleMoon's 6000 Member's gift, a very lovely and classic variation of Mystery. I love the way Poulet made this version, from the tight fighting gown to the shorter and feathered bottom, long lace sleeves and collar. It is absolutely stunning and could really be worn for any occasion. I could really see a modern Sophia Loren in this look, I say modern because she was know for her love of hats but I think the modern version of a young Sophia would like amazing hair and may forgo some of her hats for different and unique hair styles. Poulet absolutely spoils her group members with amazing creative gifts! Thank you Poulet for spoiling us! We love what you design!
I styled my look with Gems and Kisses high collar Victoria in black and platinum, matching earrings and black snake bracelets. The hair, one of my PM faves and is called Rei and the shoes are called "Classic Stiletto" from N-core. If you are not a member of PurpleMoon what are you waiting for? It's only 50L to join and you get great fashion, excellent perks and will always be stylish!

Another incredible flower inspired gown, This one is called Eve from PurpleMoon. I have to say I have really fallen in love with PurpleMoon and the designs of Poulet Koenkamp, I love how everything she makes has that element of vintage glamor with a hint of modern glamor. This delicate green strapless is so elegant with its sheer green fabric layered over a light green satin. The intricate sculpted flowers on the hips are so detailed and and short petaled skirt that is worn alone or with the longer skirt that gracefully touches the floor. The exquisite scarf wrapped around the neck with the sculpted flower and white sparkled netting, adding to the beauty. The tight fitting gloves with the light feather trim. Really absolutely gorgeous.
