Behnaz Sarafpour Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2009 NYC

It had been 3 days since I last washed any dishes. As I woke up with a rather large mosquito bite on my arm this morning, perhaps it is time to finish the long-overdue job. To accompany me throughout this atrocious task, I played the firstface video from FTV for Spring/Summer 2005. In one segment, I saw Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana opening the show for Behnaz Sarafpour with a dress embellished with jewels and face powdered white and painted juicy red in the centre. That was a stunning collection with a great mix of Eastern and Western elements. Four years later, Ms Sarafpour seems to have fallen off the radar in an industry that is ingrained with the concept of “Flavour of the Week”. Well… Let us catch up with what’s new from the talented New-York based womenswear designer.
