"Strapless is of course an important feature right now. We're seeing a lot of mothers wear strapless, especially mothers in their forties who have stayed in shape or have the confidence to wear it. It's a very young look and certainly doesn't make you look frumpy at all. This fabric is a really nice fabric in that it's a heavier, it's not real light and clingy so it gives you some body. It won't cling to your hips and it's a soft line in your hips so it just accentuates your small waste and your upper torso but covers up things down here that we might not want people to emphasize. This is an iridescent taffeta and it's, there are a lot of iridescent, several of our dresses here are iridescent and that just means that when they hit the light different ways, there are two different colors. I don't know if the camera can pick that up but it's a really neat way to bring in a kind of nice color, soft color."
