The UK’s Lisa Jayne Dann had a very eclectic collection. For me, her very first runway piece was the highlight of the show. A gorgeous ivory trench with beautiful construction. The rest of her collection was a combination of long animal print dresses, oversized bags, and drapey jumpsuits.

It was a packed house for Japanese designer Chiyuki Sugimoto. The collection was that of beauty and happiness. The frocks were of mix and match florals, plaids, and gingham. Sequins, rosettes, and feather detail was found throughout the collection. The floor length knit tennis dress and full length shirt dress were pieces that really stood out.
