Carmen Marc Valvo
One-Shoulder Cover Up Dress
$139 at Neiman Marcus
Carmen Marc Valvo is known for sophisticated glamour and many celebrities, including Oprah Winfrey, Kate Winslet, Beyonce Knowles, and Catherine Zeta-Jones have sparkled when wearing his elegant designs on the red carpet. I have a few Carmen Marc Valvo dresses and not only do I love the style but the fit is superb - he really knows how to cut for a women's body. Whether you are tall and willowy or short and curvy, a Carmen Marc Valvo dress fits in all the right places.
Carmen Marc Valvo also designs swimwear and since this brutal New York City winter has me daydreaming about a tropical getaway, I could not resist showcasing his very stylish swimsuit cover up dress - it has such an elegant silhouette that I would absolutely rock it as a little black dress.
Made of nylon/spandex, it features a self tie waist, dangling tassels with silvertone hardware and a ruched skirt with faux-wrap front. And, you can't go wrong with the sexy one-shoulder neckline. Go ahead and make the beach your red carpet!
