LONDON, Sep 22, 2004/ FW/ – Ben De Lisi is an American in London and like a parody of Sting’s ‘Englishman in New York’, he celebrates ten years on the London catwalk with a summer garden party.

De Lisi’s collection for Spring Summer 2005 is pretty, feminine and full of floral as his models parade through an archway of flowers in silk chiffon and double breasted mini jackets. This birthday celebration is about lightness and romance with not a hint of black in sight.

An unusual but stylish move for the native New Yorker who is famous for his red carpet luxury. Full-length dresses and skirts with his signature side splits and daring necklines burst with glamour and prestige.

Ben De Lisi’s ladies are always soft and chic and this collection is no exception, he has that endless ability to make a woman feel like a princess by simply putting on a dress and in that instant she is everything that is eternally beautiful in being a woman both inside and out.

This collection is more for the ‘those who can will’ rather than for most of us mere mortals, but that is I suppose this is what makes the alluring glamorous, and she will be this summer whether the red carpet occasion be a dapper dinner party at the palace or the fast and flashy Hollywood hills.
