March 20, 2008 - SoHo, New York, New York – Patricia del Castillo announces the launch of her new Fall/Winter 2008 collection of women's finely tailored clothing. Patricia del Castillo's latest designs bring glamour to everyday life. Her theme – a woman should always be well-dressed, regardless of the occasion; her medium – finely tailored coats, full skirts, fitted pants, all made with lightweight, high quality fabrics. This collection is unique because her designs transform classical and conservative fabrics into softly flowing, feminine garments. Patricia del Castillo's designs are inspired by an era when well-dressed women exuded fame, fortune and love.
In her latest collection, Patricia del Castillo presents exquisite coat-dresses with elegant collars and pleated skirts that evoke movement and flairs of fun, accentuating a woman's individual beauty. Patricia del Castillo uses primarily natural fabrics with colors such as charcoal black, and mild desert color tones such as camel, jasper green and hazy sunset.
Patricia del Castillo's Fall/Winter 2008 collection can be viewed by appointment or by visiting the boutique at 198 Spring Street in SoHo.
