 Spring
2000 is about Renewal. My view for the Spring 2000 Design Collection
is  "renewal".
The woman of the new millennium is ready to embrace a more fresh look, both
delicate and modern.
Denim
and floral
prints are re-discovered, and colors are definitely "in" for both day
and evening wear. The fashion for Spring 2000 allows and offers women the
ability to enhance their bodies with style and express their attitudes through
what they wear. (see pretty,
wild,
chic,
and elegant.)
With colors
the modern woman speaks loudly and demands attention, or whispers and uses
color to camouflage or blend in. More attention is paid to accessories,
now an important aspect of dressing up for both day and evening wear.

 In
a sense, fashion rediscovers the old and elaborates on it to become more
versatile for the demands of today's diverse lifestyles. Evening wear has
seen a bit of everything. This was especially apparent at the recent Hollywood
awards where a variety of styles paraded across the stage---everything from
elegant to understated to "over the top" and of questionable taste.
Maria
Campo is the owner of MARIA CAMPO DESIGN in Miineapolis, creating
evening wear, bridal, children's, and stage-wear designs for clients as
diverse as the artist formerly known as "Prince" to Nordstrom.
Maria is from Turin, Italy, and worked with NUXIAL INTERNATIONAL in Turin.
She recently designed a pink squined poodle skirt for Denise Richards for
the movie "Drop Dead Gorgeous." You can learn more about Maria
on her Official Website, http://www.mariacampo.com.
Couture Design Clients
In my work, see-through, sequined, or beaded materials and rhinestones are
still big for the Spring season (see Spring
Trend: Glamorous and Spring
Trend: Elegant), even though the approach is at times more playful.
This is the attitude especially in the creation of upscale evening and stage-wear,
where colors and sparkles go hand in hand.
 In
my experience with bridal gowns there is a balanced request for both romantic
and sober design, but I also work for brides with an attitude that dares
to be different.  Brides
are considering some colors in the form of appliqués, beads, and even fabrics.
Hand work such as hand-beading, embroidery, lace application, and delicate
quilting is going strong, allowing the brides to have a unique look created
exclusively for them.
In fashion, we have seen things come and go. Styles have been re-visited,
altered, improved upon, and at times abandoned.
The woman of today has a matured sense of style.
She follows fashion, but understands the importance of using it to her advantage,
rather then following it blindly. This is the woman I design for. Maria
