Tempting tops and cocktail frocks…not to mention lamé shiney hiney leggings for that added pop! The showroom dummies danced sweetly with the debut of the new aptly named accessory line: “The New Disco Diva.” Seema Anand is the designer behind the launch couture of the line. The collection fuses traditional Indian bold prints, embroideries galore, and jewel-toned hues that combine a hip mix of flashy sequins, pallettes, and Austrian crystals for pure glitz and edgy glam. With prices starting at $200 for couture...are you for sure…? The Blue plate name is derived from the term ‘”blue plate special”…so for a collection that serves up foxy fashions…we’ll take an order for here…and to go.
