MLF...

Morgane Le Fay describes her work as 'dramatic, wistful and lyrical, emotive and profound, complex in its apparent stillness and simplicity.' It's true! Her spring/summer 2008 is a fun to step in and out of...muted colors, bold romantic designs. This layered skirt to the left is my favorite.

See her collection online Morgane Le Fay and shop locations in NY and CA:
