Miss GB Amy Carrier for Maria Francesca Paternò

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug. 31, 2011 - Miss Great Britain has chosen  the gorgeous creations of Italian designer Maria Francesca Paternò.  She wears two magnificent Haute Couture gowns in the shoots of celebrity photographer Alan Strutt.

THE DESIGNER
Maria Francesca Paternò, a Sicilian-born fashion engineer,  has been working in the fashion industry for thirty years. Devoted to the search for Beauty, the Italian haute couture designer started working for notable fashion houses in the late Seventies, a professional experience which earned her great respect in her field, both locally and internationally.  

THE SHOOTING
The photos were taken in London at Celebrity Publicity, Fay L. Bacon’s  fashion and media agency, by internationally renowned photographer Alan Strutt of UK Model Folios (UMF). Strutt is known for his iconic portraits of Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell.

THE GOWNS
The first gown is made  of silk. Two layers  of chiffon lightly fall from a draped waist creating a chromatic difference between two shades of green. The bodice is enriched by French lace and vintage embroideries from the Seventies.

The second dress is a black and white mermaid gown,  reminiscent of  Hollywood’s Golden Era. Embroidered tulle,  soutage flowers and a duchesse satin bow create the perfect balance of gracious elegance and voluptuous femininity. A silk scarf adds the final touch.

AMY CARRIER
Miss Great Britain was ecstatic about the idea of wearing Francesca Paternò’s creations.  The Liverpool-born model personally chose the dresses for the photoshoot.
