FASHIONS of FORTUNY When one thinks of Italy one might think of the designers like Prada,  Valentino, D&G and others. Another famous designer who's design were made popular in the early 1900s  and worn by movie stars and Parisian fashion , was Mariano Fortuny. The designs are reminisce of  ancient Grecian style of  the long flowing lines, minimalist  look that is popular now in  fashion. Simple lines that drape over the shape.  Dresses made of fine delicate silk and so finely pleated . It was the rage of the time. Fortuny was a master in many things other then fashion design. He also was a stage designer,  Fortuny also worked on textile designs with his French wife.  FASHION EXHIBITION For anyone who loves fashion and loves to travel  there is a exhibition of his designs being held in Venice at the Palazzo Fortuny held until November.
