The spring 2020 collection was defined by a myriad of chic dresses with plenty of elegant accents: sheer touches, lace details, macramé appliqués, sequins, crystals, ostrich feathers and even fur.
Innocent and provocateur are normally two opposing concepts, but the designer managed to merge them successfully in a myriad of mesmerizing gowns. View more from the Blumarine spring 2020 collection

Despite the strong preference for monochrome outfits, the line also featured some patterns, namely animal and floral prints and stripes.
