Subtly Sexy is Chic

 

 

(Metro) -- If you're in the mood for subtle, sensual appeal, then try fashions that appeal to the girl inside, like these from Behnaz Sarafpour.

Sarafpour is an Iranian-born designer who climbed the ladder of success after her graduation from Parsons School of Design. She has worked for Anne Klein, Isaac Mizrahi and Barney's private label. Famed fashion journalist Anna Wintour predicted that Sarafpour would be "the next big thing," and after such a gleaming review, fashionistas took notice of her collections.

Sarafpour's designs have been described as bringing romanticism to the modern age. She is known for her delicate lacework and simple lines, which give her clothing a slightly ethereal feel. However, recent collections have been decidedly more sexy.

Last year, Sarafpour paid homage to the highly popular television cult sensation "Sex and the City" by dressing a replica of Sarah Jessica Parker for Barney's Sex and the City-themed holiday window. If you didn't know of Sarafpour before then, you certainly must now!

Silky and sleek, these delicate gowns in silver and gold are the perfect holiday trimmings. Embellished with just a touch of butterfly-shaped lace, they're sweet, but sexy. Photos by Froylan Flowers.
