Top beauty specialists from Christian Dior and Paul Edmonds were on hand to give expert beauty advice. The show opened with Caroline Castigliano\u2019s stunning designer evening gowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">There was an array of navy with black, gorgeous nudes and statement dress in greens and purple. Models then gracefully glided down the catwalk in romantic bridal gowns of soft tulle and lace, followed by Castigliano\u2019s striking signature pieces with structured fishtail and statement organza gowns. Caroline Castigliano says: \u201cEvery bride deserves to look and feel her most beautiful on her wedding day, and the 2011\/12 collection is designed to do just that. Soft organza and satin georgette give this collection an expression of understated feminine glamour. \u201cFor the evening wear collection,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">I wanted to show a cross-section of the evening and party dresses which encapsulate the diversity of the Caroline Castigliano brand. In this year\u2019s collection, we have short dresses that are perfect for a party as well as slightly more formal occasions, such as Ascot, Henley or a family or friend\u2019s wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The collection also includes structured, biased and soft floaty gowns. I love designing evening wear; it is really expanding my creativity, and the red carpet glamour look is just fascinating right now.\u201d Caroline adds: \u201cMy ethos is to design for women that love the style and appreciate beautiful fabrics and quality workmanship. My gowns are simplistic, stylish and luxurious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">In 2011\/12 my entire inspiration was to continue developing a relaxed glamour collection, a sensual and glamorous look with a casual feel about it.\u201d The 2011\/12 collection is available exclusively at Caroline Castigliano boutiques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">By appointment only: Knightsbridge: 154 Brompton Road Tel: 020 7993 9622 London W1: 62 Berners Street Tel: 020 7636 8212 Bath: 5-6 Saw Close Tel: 01225 789900<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Internationally renowned designer Caroline Castigliano launched her exquisite 2011\/12 bridal and evening wear collection to great acclaim at the prestigious Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park London on Thursday, 20th January.
