Designer Evening Dresses > Mason by Michelle Mason

Who doesn’t like to slip into something and feel instantly sexy? Those raising their hands should step aside and let the rest of us enjoy Michelle Mason’s sultry sophistication. This Los Angeles-via-Korea designer honed her craft under the talented Richard Tyler and struck out on her own with an eponymous shoe line in 1996. A year later she launched a ready-to-wear collection, exhibiting an equivalent aptitude for tailoring and draping.

Upon launching her diffusion line in 2003, Mason became accessible to a younger crowd, and soon Nicole Richie had young women clambering to snag one of the line’s fluid halter dresses. And Mason’s celebrity fanbase doesn’t stop there—fashion icons such as Madonna, Angelina Jolie and Sofia Coppola have also been spotted in the designer’s wares. For a dose of sex appeal that’s elegant and utterly wearable, say yes to Mason.
