Zang Toi's Fall 2013 Runway - Opulence en Vogue and on Display

I am completely in love with these fantastic designs by the Malaysian-born fashion designer Zang Toi. I am a huge fan of his glamorous, elegant and feminine couture designs. Below you will find the link to Zang Toi's Fall 2013 collection. Here he brought the opulence of Imperial Russia to the runway at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York. Toi was inspired by a trip to Saint Petersburg where he was fascinated by the Peterhof Palace's Grand Ballroom. Toi's runway look exuded luxury and class. His models wore Zang Toi precious jewels by Amee Philips inspired by the Faberge egg, made from 18K gold, amethyst and emerald. The jewelry brought a hint of seduction and glamour to an already impressive collection, filled with tones of sapphire, emerald, amethyst and plenty of gold. Be Inspired ...... I wrote MORE BLOGS about Zang Toi.
