LF USA

No red carpet gowns here.

The rumors were true-- Georgina Chapman and Keren Kraig have inked a deal with LF USA to bring Marchesa to a lower contemporary price point. The new line, which doesn't have a name yet, will be priced from $150 to $750 and feature "many of the brand’s hallmarks — including embroidery and prints," according to WWD. Chapman describes the line as "under the Marchesa umbrella, but with a slightly different feel." It will be a first foray into daywear for the designer, who's become known for celebrity-beloved, decadent eveningwear at a luxury price point. We envision versatile silk blouses, embroidered or beaded jackets and printed trousers. So, when will we get to see what daytime Marchesa looks like?
