The studio at Exit Art was buzzing with excitement at Victor dE Souza’s fall 2011 runway show. His collection was inspired by imperial India during the winter, focusing on the brilliant colors of the birds and forests. While staying true to his color and texture-rich design, we saw a remarkably fresh ensemble from chic floor-length gowns in bright, bold blue and soft white to slimming black mini-dresses paired with lacy elbow-length gloves. The looks mixed couture with men’s tailored fashion by pairing sophisticated blazers with eccentric blue trousers and classic black heels. From the soft yet dramatic makeup, to the exotic music and fantastic new looks, Victor dE Souza amazed us all yet again!
