Shalini & Paras Of Geisha Designs Tell Us 10 Summer Dressing Styles

0  Views

Everything the Geisha Designs does is inspired by nature. In an industry that thrives on seasonal and elusive trends, we persevere to sustain a feeling of enchantment by creating something that never tires, never changes, never dies. We take pride in re-creating traditional silhouettes with a hint of modernity. Dabbling with lace, chiffons, floral motifs, beads and pearls in most of our designs, our muse is a city-bred girl, who is fond of reading, travelling and exploring. She mixes an element of the new with some hand-me-downs from her mother with equal ease. 

Date Night Dressing

Simone Asymmetric Dress

Simone Asymmetric Dress

Date Night Dressing is our favourite trend this summer. A perfect setting for love and romance; for music and dance, to meet & to greet, to reminisce and be merry. Feminine & romantic silhouettes are a wardrobe staple. We, at Geisha Designs, launched a collection of embroidered skirts, corset blouses, tulle tops and romantic dresses centred around this theme.

What Geisha Designs Recommend: One of our favourites from the collection is the Simone Dress, featuring an Old-Rose flirty asymmetric hem silhouette; perfect for a dinner date.
