Oh what fun! I had the pleasure of a photography shoot for Simply You Magazine at my showrooms here at European Antiques. I rent both my furniture and my showrooms on regular interior design or fashion magazine photo shoots and I was thrilled with the result of this shoot. Teresa Moore added another touch of glamour to this stunning evening wear portfolio. Yvonne Bennetti, Adrienne Winkelmann, World, Liz Mitchell, Trelise Cooper, and Jane Daniels were just a few of the fabulous brands on show.

‘This seasons evening wear is an alluring combination of plunging necklines, glistening sequins and luxurious lace. Prepare to ensnare….”
