The Main Dining Room of the restaurant was transformed into a pink garden where trees were installed and hundreds of pink flowers hung from the ceiling and wrapped around the custom Bernadaud chandeliers. The show producers made smart use of the shallow rectangular, wide space as the venue was not designed for a long narrow runway. Models entered through a floral arch towards the center of the room, turned a sharp left getting close to the audience before turning to the right side of the room and making an exit through a separate door. The choreography was near flawless.

One of the exceptional looks was a red corset bodice A-line dress with floral appliqué accents. It’s sexy, intricately designed and bold. Another lovely silhouette is the blush strapless gown with layers of embroidered Italian floral lace paired with ruffle shawl. The transparent shawl provides a touch of modesty. The pale green tulle maxi dress with spring flowers, sheer green shoulder shrug is a mix of eye-catching sensual dress, while covering the arms at the same time.
