<![CDATA[NEW SPRING/SUMMER COLLECTION - embodies royal glamour]]> Eileen Kirby 2011-08-14 23:36:04UTC +10 http://www.kirbypurrs.com.au/index.php?news=1313390164 http://www.kirbypurrs.com.au/index.php?news=1313390164

This spring, Australian girls will be given the chance to dress like true royal princesses - when Eileen Kirby's refined and extravagant new evening wear collection hits local stores. 

ABOUT THE COLLECTION
Eileen's vision for this stunning new collection was that it should embody the natural, refined elegance of royalty. Eileen was inspired by 'aristocratic ballerinas'. It features lace bustiers, flouncing layered dresses, tulle skirts, deluxe satins, silk chiffons, layers of soft sheer fabrics, beautifully composed ruffle dresses, and a hypnotic display of luxe jewelled dresses with beads and sequins and glorious collars.

The entire collection is a like a ubiquitous jewel - it has all of Kirby's luxurious and sophisticated style, is compellingly romantic and sensual, and is designed to make every girl feel opulent.

The range has a gorgeous colour palette of various silvers (silver grey to argent) that is beautifully contrasted with soft natural pastels, deep reds, yellows and bright blues and pinks.

It also includes an array of dresses and separates in different lengths. As well as party frocks with chiffon layering and beautiful sheers, it also includes glamorous crepe siren dresses in different styles and prints - all with lovely, whimsical names. Lilly Long, for instance, is an elegant sequined bodice and tulle skirt; New Moon is a heavenly silver sequined bodice dress, draped with a silk crinkle skirt; and Object of My Affection is a shoulder-baring satin silver beaded dress that's swirled into bow: a jewel in itself.
