Ah, so pretty! With Resort, Marchesa's Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig did a good, straightforward job of making eveningwear that their clients will swoon over. The designers looked to Islamic tiles and the colors of Morocco to delicately inform the collection, from a white lace cocktail dress, fitted close to the body and embroidered with pink roses, to the off-the-shoulder navy peasant blouse encrusted at the collarbone with dazzling beading and crystals. While the 3-D flowers on everything from a black lace peplum top to a cap-sleeve V-neck gown showed off technique, the simpler silk faille party dresses were equally fetching in colors like celadon green and watermelon pink. This season, Chapman and Craig made it impossible not to appreciate their aesthetic.
