Majolica Blue Evening Wear
Catwalk evening wear has inspired retailers to add Majolica Blue based sequin dresses and coats to their inventory.
The brocade coat far left was by the House of Valentino.
Centre Left – Catwalk coat from Alberta Ferretti.
Right – This blue coat is by Peter Som – Blue karakul coat with sable collar.
From experience as someone with a fair complexion I know Majolica Blue/Blueberry can be a difficult colour to wear. It can look harsh against fair skins compared with softer purple based blues.
When mixed with other related tones the look is softer and can bring out colour of the eyes. 
Focusing again on the new erogenous zone – the shoulder, this mixed blue halter neck sequin dress right, is by Marks & Spencer and is available in October for Christmas 2009.

The blue sequin dress far left, by fashion designer Alberta Ferretti, draws our attention to the interesting fuller banana sleeves. The chain handle handbag is made of blue Tuscan lamb fur.
The pants and chiffon/metallic top (centre left) are also by Alberta Ferretti and shoulder interest is at the fore again, 
but here as a peek-a-boo fashion design.
Near Left – Shoulder focus is important this winter and the racer back mini dress tunic uses several tones of blue sequins. It gives choice against all those one shouldered posh frocks in store.
