Milan - Pucci my favourite collection so far

Vanessa Paradis - Johnny Depps missus modelling my favourite dress

On quick inspection the show collection that stands out so far for me is Pucci. I love the lavish, glamourous, baroque sumptuousness of the collection, luxe velvets, satins and embellished details on a sexy flattering silhouette are a winning combination and shrewd investment buy if ones wants to look alluring, demure and fabulous.
