Did you know this? How did I just find this out!
Last Thursday night I got invited to see some of the most amazing dresses at Moda Operandi's 24 E 64th St location.
This is a little jewel of a spot.
The decor is delicious! Luscious Italian plastered walls in verdigris green combined with perfect pink velour couches welcome you to a collection of rotating best of the best clothes that only you have dreamed about.
This store is special - it is there for exclusive trunk shows, and special clients who may request to try on special items from the website.
The collection I got to gawk over was one by the husband wife duo of Cucculelli Shaheen. Their dresses are beyond breathless, truly one of kind and completely sophisticated sexy.
Beaded placements and cut outs that highlight the silhouettes and are to die for with the intricacies and special details. My absolute favorite has to be the beaded cape. One version attaches to a dress the other is just a sheer celestial cape that allows you to wear it over any dress to give it instantly that WOW factor.
Custom made to measure these are couture quality. I felt like I was looking at museum dresses. And with that I am sure someone going to the Met Ball will have one of these on.
Try and get an appointment to view this collection if you have a big event. I am waiting - there must be a ball I need to go to.
