These are followed by Castigliano’s striking signature pieces with structured fishtails and statement organza gowns. Commenting at the collection launch, Caroline Castigliano said: “For the evening wear collection, I wanted to show a cross-section of the evening and party dresses which encapsulate the diversity of the Caroline Castigliano brand. This year’s collection has short dresses that are perfect for a party and slightly more formal occasions, such as Ascot, Henley or a family or friend’s wedding.

The collection also includes structured, biased and soft floaty gowns. I love designing evening wear; it is expanding my creativity, and the glamour red carpet look is fascinating now.” Caroline added: “My ethos is to design for women who love the style and appreciate beautiful fabrics and quality workmanship. My gowns are simplistic, stylish and luxurious. In 2011/12, my entire inspiration was to continue developing a relaxed glamour collection, a sensual and glamorous look with a casual feel.”
