Bill Blass returned to Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011- New York with fashion designer, Jeffrey Monteiro, showcasing a small and pretty spring collection.
While talking about his latest collection, Monteiro said on Wednesday that the collection is inspired by South African tribal culture in 1970s. It’s from there that he added a raffia dress and a red-based striped tribal gown.
"I’d like to think I bring youthfulness and lightness to the collection. Mr. Blass did that, too, but I bring my spirit and my eye to it," Monteiro said.
Keeping in mind Blass’ signature shade of red, Monteiro used it perfectly in its pair of red dress trouser worn with a white top with red beaded fringe.
