In a partnership from seasoned apparel professionals, Eric Benarouche and Mayren Viray, this contemporary brand combines American ambition and aesthetic with European design sensibility and superior fabrication; resulting in first-class style at a sensible price.
“Stretta”, a word conveying sexiness, sophistication and energy in Italian, introduces a launch collection for fall 2011 consisting of dresses, skirts and leggings made from a uniquely developed, high-quality twist rayon stretch fabric in a variety of body hugging and eye-popping silhouettes. Drawing inspiration from a summer in St. Tropez the gentle notes of ivory, pink and beige jostle with rich shades of scarlet, violet and black.
