Will this be your first time to Nashville or is it a return trip? And either way, what will you do to get the most out of your time there?

We have been to Nashville a few times now. The Nashville woman loves to dress up, which makes her the perfect Marchesa woman. We couldn’t be more excited to have the opportunity to interact with our customers and discuss their thoughts on our new collection. And whenever we’re in Nashville, we love going to local vintage stores and finding great inspiration pieces.

What three words sum up the essence of your resort collection?

Glamorous, dramatic, daring.

What were you inspired by while designing it?

We took inspiration from the 1970s Las Vegas glamour in Martin Scorsese’s movie Casino. The film inspired us to incorporate ultra-glamorous details like feathers, sequins, beads and jewels into the collection.

How would you love to see all that opulence and texture out in the world this season?

We are always excited to see how different women wear our designs, and it will always be such an honor for us to see a woman in Marchesa. We love the idea of a dress that can be worn for multiple occasions—whether dressed up for a special event such as a holiday party, or dressed down for a night out with friends.
