Julian Chang has outdone himself again with his 2015 resort collection of dresses. His feather light poly-blend sheer fabric makes an ideal beach cover up and transitions flawlessly from day to evening.

Personally, I liked last year’s line, but this year’s line-up is better than ever. Julian has managed to offer something for every figure, from flowing caftans to fitted bodice with flowing bottom gowns. The short dresses are sassy and long dresses classy. I especially like the introduction of lace and beading to the collection this year. The cover-ups are so stylish, they may just make it to your permanent wardrobe. Whether you are partial to the vibrant colors of his collection or the muted selections, all distinctive lines flow well.

He has said, “Style is not based on brand names, labels or latest seasons must have. Style is within you. My collection will bring you an effortless look that is outlined with your own style by mixing timeless, comfortable pieces that will always be relevant to your wardrobe. Miami’s lifestyle is my inspiration, so I mix glamour with sexiness and confidence.”
