Barbara Tfank Spring 2024 Ready-to-Wear collection, runway looks, beauty, models, and reviews.
What’s the secret to tying the perfect bow? Barbara Tfank knows. Her spring collection features more than one perfectly gift-wrapped bow at the waistline of her gowns, using a French technique she mentions was mastered by the early couturiers Christian Dior and Pierre Balmain. According to the designer, it takes years of practice and is tough to do unless someone has taught you in person. “It’s nerve-wracking to do, especially on set.
Beyond the bows, Tfank explored new fabrications for her gowns, traveling to Italian mills to source the rarest of fabrics, like florals lined with silver and metallic details that add extra shine under the moonlight, or crinkled fabric gowns in luminous shades like coral and blue, which the designer reveals will be hard to find elsewhere.
