Haute See-Through Couture

Nina Ricci S/S ‘09

Parading down the runway, with an almost epic-romance tune playing in the background, were models in recherché high-fashion, see-through couture from the Nina Ricci S/S ‘09 collection.

French clothing designers never seem to disappoint.  Styles in the Nina Ricci Spring/Summer 2009 are hip and romantic; two trends that, when combined, have a modern-majestic aura about them. In each of these designs, the peek-a-boo fabric that covers the arms, shoulders, torso, and miniskirt-covered hips transcends into an exquisite, flowing train in the back.

In my wildest dreams, I could never get away with wearing any of these hot--yet haute and elegant--Nina Ricci fashions. However, for those who can, enjoy.
