Randolph Duke’s 2008 Spring Couture Collection

Filed Under Fashion |

Last night Hot In Hollywood’s Micheal Medico was live at Randolph Duke’s 2008 Spring Couture Collection, kicking off the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Smashbox Studios. After a seven year runway absence, it looks like the Duke is back in full force and giving us everything we’ve been missing!

Here’s the low down on the new collection straight from Micheal:

“So the collection. It was flawless. I have to say, I actually gasped out loud at the beauty of about 5 of the gowns. There was one, oh my god, a silver- silk and satin- crystal and metal trimmed dress that was off one shoulder […], it was stunning. This collection was completely “of the earth”. There were many fern and palm fronds in silhouette. The tones were of dark blue midnight, stone, bronze, quartz, even lime green and changeable silks that were reminiscent of hibiscus and hot house flowers of the tropics. There was also a lot of fan pleating that resembled palm fronds. We also saw layers of chiffon over metallic tones that had a desert feel. I felt this collection was airy and whimsical yet retaining class and maturity. At the after party […] he told us that he put this entire collection together in 4 WEEKS and had only 2 seamstresses working on it. It is amazing. How he pulled off 73 pieces so quickly that were all so unique and varied- I have no idea.”…for more juicy details, hot shots of the show and the full story, check out HotInHollywood.tv!
