Reem Acra Unveils Resort Collection Inspired by Nature and Vacation
During her recent resort appointment, renowned designer Reem Acra revealed the inspiration behind her latest collection, which is a departure from the glitz and glamour her clients are accustomed to. Acra shared that her best-selling item from last season, a stunning strapless beaded gown with a matching capelet, was a showstopper that sold out multiple times due to high demand from VIP customers.
Despite the success of the previous season’s collection, Acra wanted to infuse more of her personal style into the new designs. Embracing the essence of vacation during the resort season, the collection features breezy caftans paired with fabulous flat mules. Acra emphasized the importance of attention to detail in transforming a look, whether dressing up for an evening event or channeling a boho vibe with a flower crown.
Delving into her archive for inspiration, Acra rediscovered a beloved bird motif that has adorned the brand’s wrapping paper for the past 25 years. This motif found its way onto the new collection, with intricately beaded bird motifs adorning gowns and stamped onto leather belts. The influence of winged creatures is evident in a standout piece from the collection: a strapless mauve gown featuring layered beaded feathers on the bodice and a cascading train reminiscent of a bird in flight.
As you make your exit from a soirĂ©e in one of Acra’s exquisite gowns, you’ll exude the elegance of a bird gracefully returning home after a long winter. The collection seamlessly blends Acra’s signature glamour with a newfound appreciation for nature and vacation, offering a fresh take on resort wear that is sure to captivate her loyal clientele.
