Report: Lela Rose FW13 at MBFW New York

Let's all be honest: We all knew Lela Rose's FW13 collection would be amazing - long before our invitations were even sent out.

I feel bad for everyone who missed out on the presentation of her romantic collection that featured lots of fluffy feathers, delicate lace and luscious satin. Intriguing prints, fun colors and beautiful embellishments did furthermore put a spell on all the attendants. Rather precise silhouettes were romanticized and relaxed by the undone hair and cute polka dot socks.

The best part of the collection? Not only does it embody all a woman strives to be (feminine, romantic, cute - as well as strong, powerful and intriguing) but Lela Rose also knows how to accentuate the beauty of the female body. The delicate silhouettes and the emphasis of the waist will make all women look and feel beautiful. Gorgeous collection, Lela Rose!
