A Little Flirtation

Azzaro: Crashing the couture, Vanessa Seward presented her resort collection for the house of Azzaro. It was chic and sexy, with polkadot halter dresses, flirty short frocks with transparent lace insets and floor-sweeping draped jersey numbers. Seward also unveiled a small collection codesigned by Jemima Khan, largely inspired by an elaborate beaded vintage Swati tunic that Khan owns. The resulting crystal embroidery down the side of a white dress or shimmering on the front of a tunic conveyed the cool glamour Seward's fans love.
