Designer Spotlight: Michelle Mason

Michelle Mason is the hottest new addition to the Curve Soleil stable of designers. Mason, a former model, began her career in design by working for Richard Tyler. In 1996 she presented her first solo effort – a shoe line called Michelle Mason; a couture line under the same name soon followed. Her contemporary line, Mason by Michelle Mason, was launched in 2003 and quickly became a favorite of celebrities and civilians alike. Mason, who is based in LA, is known for producing youthful styles with a tailored fit. Among the best selling staples of the line are the light-weight jersey dresses and feminine suit-inspired pieces. Below are a few images of pieces from the line that are currently available.

This cashmere blend sweater is perfect to wrap yourself in during a rainy summer afternoon or wear as a tunic with jeans. Also available in black.

This long cardigan is great compliment to a little sundress or can belted and worn with a tank for a more sophisticated effect. Also available in grey and black.
