Melgoza turned to the bustier for a sexy, lean silhouette. Most of the clothes were in cool tones of white and gray. That includes the one-shoulder, bias-cut gowns in satin that look like liquid silver.

Bringing together old and new is the theme for the new fashion collection from Matthew Williamson. The collection features everything from embroidery to colorful silk prints.

This show is an evolution from Williamson's collection last summer, which focused on the "ideal holiday wardrobe." The designer claims this show provides more ideas for what "she" would wear if "she" were not on vacation. The collection is a mixture of Bohemian, with some structure, a bit of "uptown" and tailoring.
