One at the most original features are the dresses that reproduce colour schenics inspired by the glorious tropical sunsets to be seen in this part of the world. Ons model I saw showed a wrap of gold lamé that was lined with orange coloured chiffon, much like the rays of the sun and the orange
tiat which the clouds take on at sunset.
