LA Spring 2005
Da-Nang
THE WHOLE SHEBANG
By Sedef Kokcuoglu

In Spring 2005 Da-Nang’s metallic embroidered silk chiffon ponchos, sequined cotton ruffle skirts, safari print herringbone shorts, and poplin jackets will render style within reach of ultra-busy urban dwellers.

For 2005 Albert & Estelle Dahan have synthesized tropical jubilance with a hip-hop inspired urban sensibility. Making ample use of delicate fabrics, embellishments and effervescent colors when creating their wearable clothes, the dynamic duo has successfully merged flair with comfort.

Perhaps the best aspect of Da-Nang clothes is their natural versatility. In this line the most unlikely combinations, such as a silk tunic and cotton Bermuda cargo shorts ensemble, simply work. Moreover the endearingly laid-back spirit of these creations allows the individual to make a unique fashion statement by mixing, matching and mismatching.

PS for Fashionista Moms--The Da-Nang look is so charming that you will have a blast dressing your 8 year old mini-me in Albert & Estelle’s printed camis, cotton voile peasant skirts and vintage polos.
