Design maven Carla Zampatti staged a spring/summer 2012/13 collection preview earlier this week via a star-studded event at her Woollahra residence.
The latest collection, 'Into the Light', features ready-to-wear pieces inspired by Cecil Beaton and presents as a delicate mix of tailored separates and deconstructed silhouettes.
Key fabrics include white cottons, luxe lace and linens, with a soft colour palette of pastels – ice blue, musk pink and cream – and stand-out pieces in bright orange and bold prints.
Guests, including Lifestyled.com.au editor Paula Joye, Barry Humphries and expert jeweller Jan Logan, enjoyed a selection of biscotti, espresso an San Pellegrino refreshments as well as music from Jonny Seymour and Paul Mac.
