Designer Spotlight: Valerie Dumaine
Posted on Sep 24 2008

In all my years buying for the Paper-Doll.com boutique, it was very infrequent that I loved a full collection from any one designer. Valerie Dumaine's Fall 08 collection is one of those rare gems. I absolutely love every piece from her fall line.

Valerie's designs are wonderfully wearable, and I love that they transition from semi-casual to dressed up depending on how they are styled/accessorized. The Fall 08 colour palette is beautiful with lots of rich jewel tones mixed with black and grey.

Valerie Dumaine is my favorite designer. I absolutly love her designs. I would buy her entire collection if I could afford it. This fall, I fell in love with the "madeline" cardigan that I boought in 2 different colors - plum and black. And I will definitly buy the lola dress - so exquisite!
