Oceans Twenty-Twelve

Be it serene seascape prints, mother-of-pearl inspired fabrics, or silhouettes that mimic jellyfish, this spring it’s all about under the sea chic. At Paris fashion week designers created a stylish water world complete with gowns stitched with shards of coral as seen at Alexander McQueen.
