Marchesa Satin-Faced Organza Dress


I picked up the February issue of the InStyle magazine last weekend and came across this magnificent piece. A satin-faced organza dress by Marchesa: absolutely beautiful! The architectural detail is truly fascinating. I haven't been able to stop thinking about the dress since I first saw it. At the Jersey Shore, one would probably find themselves wearing it at an exclusive black tie affair. It is no doubt red-carpet-wear.

Actress Rosamund Pike models it gracefully on the lower right. In small print on the lower left hand corner she says "You almost have to put yourself into character, with the right hair and makeup, for such a dress." Also note her reference to a china figurine in the larger print. Marchesa's collection has taken on a oriental feel for the Spring 2011 season. You can see more of this in this issue of the magazine.
