COUTURE REPORT: RISING NECKLINES
Recently hitched, Ivanka Trump wore a refined Grace Kellyesque custom creation by Vera Wang. This has spun off a new interest in the traditional gown designed with a higher neckline and addition of sleeves. Truth is designers typically have a couple gowns in the collection every season with the traditional bride in mind. When an icon like Ivanka makes an entrance we sit up and really take notice of those classics, especially if the gown is as well executed as the one she wore.
