Designer, Melanie Von Alexandria explores the significance of innovative beauty in her ready-to-wear, couture and jewelry collections. In an age where designers borrow from each other, Melani Von Alexandria cultivates a revolutionary idea – an ability that extends to her work. MVA’s ongoing collaboration with the City of Philadelphia has revived fashion history. The designer’s ingenuity has garnered unwavering support and excitement in her quest to address the daily struggles of a city gripped with violence in cinematic style.

In a nod to ‘SUPERHEROES’ (Fashion and Fantasy – Metropolitan Costume Institute Exhibit), Von Alexandria named her Spring 2009 Collection ‘SUPERWOMAN.’ This latest body of work continues the creative and original tapestry of her hybrid vision, Gunn Metal Beauty Collection.

‘SUPERWOMAN’ is an ethereal collection that encourages the interplay between the duality of nature and other forms. Laced with tailored organza, silk jersey and pleated cotton, this dynamic spring collection drapes (itself) around MVA’s imaginative ornaments, brooches, and cuffs formed out of a one-of-a-kind alloy: gun metal. This showing will reveal the first pieces of the collection to be officially launched in December of this year.

I just saw your beautiful cocktail dress on a morning TV show. Phila. I think. It was off white $200. looked like ruffles or strips of 1" fabric, and lower portion was see through and it had pockets that looked like there were a little scooped and fringed. This is the best I can do of explainging as it was only on for a moment. I fell in love with this dress and would like to purchase it possibly. Where can I find it to try it on, or if all else fails how to buy direct. Is there a way to see it on this web site? Thanks for any help you can give me, and yes, I am not to computer hip, but I try . Mady
