In Club Tropicana, body conscious summer dresses and hotpants in bold prints and colours look at home on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro.

(PRWEB) March 21, 2011

The season of love has arrived as DJ and designer, Fearne Cotton presents her high summer collection for Very.co.uk at the exclusive members club Home House, London.

A seductive twist comes in the cocktail dress in delicate double-faced voile; the asymmetric neck line and softly rouched lace, interwoven with fine metallic thread lends the style a subtle sex appeal.

Separates are simple in shape, using texture, fabric and subtle detail to create effect. A sunray pleated knee length skirt in a gentle spot print summarises the soft, refined aesthetic continued through with a lace detail T-shirt and polka dot, back tied shirt.

Product Director, Matt Hudson says, ?we?re delighted to see Fearne carving out a unique, signature style that really resonates with our customers. Fearne?s spring collection has been her most successful to date and we are confident that the summer additions to her range will inspire our customers and strengthen her position as one of Very.co.uk?s most popular designers.?
