morgane le fay

I'm on the search for some dresses recently, and I discovered a {new-to-me} designer Morgane Le Fay. Apparently a shop that started in Soho back in the early 80's when Soho was REALLY Soho...they have established themselves to presence on Madison Avenue now. Their style is to create mysterious pieces that can be worn in various ways - use a sash as a tie piece around the waist or bring it up and over your shoulder to create an asymmetrical accent. Creating maybe a dozen cuts of outfits, they are executed in some basic hues to create a full collection. "Our sole concern is for fit, ease, and elegance - not for age or background."...which was seen as the dressing room was comprised of totally different types and ages of women. On a fun note, Morgane Le Fay debuted costumes for the world premiere of Peter Martins new ballet for the New York City Ballet last fall - which I can totally imagine seeing all the flowing chiffon and silk materials used in their pieces. Here a few snapshots - and check out their website for a better look at their beautiful collection~
