Shimmer. Sparkles. Lots of sheer, both in overlay & cutouts. Embellishments to the max – Preciosa crystals & beading. Lace detailing. And to top it all off, custom fabrics. What more could you ask for in providing over 50 evening gown options that would WOW on any red carpet or at any formal event?!? Kati Stern Venexiana for S/S 15 as done this and more! Her looks were SHEER PERFECTION! (no pun intended!)

The collection had a lot of distinct qualities and styles — custom prints, eye-catching details, & stunning allure! Flashy detailing was apparent throughout the collection.
