An ostentatious under water sea party for mermaids, crochet rugged up grandmas and cupie dolls was seen at Romance Was Born’s latest collection. “Doilies and Pearls, Oysters and Shells” left no surface spared. Nails, heels and handbags were covered in shells, minty musky pastel crochet sat over ruffled tulle and eyebrows had pleated lace fans to give the look of surprise. Sophie Ward seemed to emanate as the princess of the sea. This will be the most talked about show, original and over zealous but I am sure that I will not purchase anything, yet be astonished and spirited when I see most of the pieces featured in upcoming shoots in Oyster or Russh. Viva la Romance.
