Marchesa Fall 2012 via Elle and NYTimes.
“Illusion dresses that appear as if the sequins and lace were embroidered directly on the body are nothing new at Marchesa, but the designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig took a turn this season that you could call macabre, or you could call McQueen.
A to-the-floor dress of panels of hand-stitched black lace revealed, as the model walked by, that she was also wearing a bodysuit embroidered with a life-size skeleton in silver beads.
On her arm, you could make out the humerus, radius and ulna, and on her back were ribs and vertebrae. It was like a fashion X-ray.
There were also some new shorter dresses, a welcome development from Marchesa, like a tough laser-cut black leather dress with a fluted skirt. Conversely, for evening, they went slightly nuts with the gold lamé, sending out a ball gown so large that it scraped audience members on both sides of the runway. People seemed to love it.”
