Diego Binetti - Rasberry Parfait

I wake up today…HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY! Two of my all time favorite people: Karen and Diego! Can life be better?

The designer: Innovative, thought-provoking designs and elegance with hand-crafted, artistic detailing for a modern couture style.

The Collection: The set was a beautiful fantastical secret garden with models like living fairies in pin-tucked gowns and layers of silk chiffon and intricate beading. Any girl who wants to feel beautiful would lust for these dresses and gowns. A dream come true!
