Tadashi Shoji New York Fashion week 2012

For sexy and stylish woman The Tadashi Shoji Fall 2012 collection was modeled during Fashion Week in New York.  The collection was glamorous with a hint of sexy. With luxurious fabrics of lace, chiffon, silk and lightweight velvet, Shoji captured the beauty of the golden age of Shanghai with his Fall collection of dresses inspired by Dietrich in "Shanghai Express."  According to the designer, the collection not only was based on the Golden Age of Shaghai, which was ridden with problems from darker times, but juxtaposed as a vision of present day; As the world shifts gears and moves forward with an thirst for effervescence to achieve prosperity amidst an economic slump, Shoji's Fall collection took us to a time when optimism was achieved through classic beauty.

          

A flame-red washed velvet gown had a dramatic cowl back filled with black beading, and ballgown with a gold-and-black beaded lace bodice had the full Cinderella treatment for its skirt. The green blouson-top gown with mermaid hemline that opened the show was tailor-made for a bombshell.
