CC Loves... Amy Matto Dresses!

Darlings, CC is absolutely smitten with the chic and fabulous dresses by New York Designer Amy Matto. Matto launched her own contemporary women’s dress collection in the fall of 2009 from the living room of her New York City apartment. Without formal fashion training, Matto taught herself everything about the business by exploring the Garment District, following deliverymen and talking to anyone who would stop. She also found the best collaborators in the business, including a talented pattern maker and a factory with exceptional craftsmanship.
Matto’s idea for the brand grew out of a reaction to the often flashy, over-styled designs she saw in stores as well as the industry trend of outsourcing to China. She aimed to make her dresses sensual yet classic and appropriate, with understated elegance and timeless silhouettes. She is proud that her brand supports the local garment industry, a vibrant part of New York City’s historical landscape. Amy Matto's dresses fit and flatter the female body. They are both comfortable and beautifully constructed. CC can attest because she owns this lovely Uma jersey dress. The print is sheer perfection!
Check out all these other lovely Amy Matto creations, all available at amymatto.com:
