Soft, understated elegance was the theme for Bahnaz Sarafpour’s Spring 2010 RTW collection. Her love of all that is lace was apparent as ample amounts of the delicate fabric adorned everything, although it was somewhat overshadowed by her use of acid-neon fabrics.
Bahnaz Sarafpour also made use of a gorgeous patent crocodile leather which she fashioned into a lust-worthy spring jacket and knee-high pencil skirt.
The downfall of Bahnaz Sarafpour’s Spring 2010 RTW collection would have to be the oddly-random stripes of acid-neon fabrics.
