Jessica Stam in a gown from Reem Acra's fall collection
Following the romantic trail, we went next to Reem Acra's show. A label that made its name with wedding gowns, Acra continues to weave feminine frocks from gorgeous fabrics. For fall 2008, the collection focused on representing "confidence, modern luxury and a global sense of belonging." Colors of jewel-toned silk ruled the runway as Acra presented autumn coats, dresses, skirts and tops. The most memorable part? When the designer came out carrying her little white lap dog, who was dressed in a customized canine couture piece designed by...who else?
