Spority in the form of long shorts, is from a carry over SupportProviding in contrast to the width of the shorts is hardly with scores and mini-skirt attached bloomers. One and two-for-one look is a duster that has a lining that can be worn automatically.
Openwork trims and foci embroidery are marine signatures; The latter for spring is refined through the use of a new type of thread that allows for the most complex work.
