Glamour's Sweet Ode To Summer

This summer it's all about sweet sugary shades - so sweet, in fact, it could give you a tooth ache. Glamour UK perfectly defines this candy coated trend with an enchanting editorial in their June 2013 issue. Captured by photographer Pamela Hanson, US model Sharon Kavijian delightfully displays several summery looks, swirled in a confection of daintiness & femininity.

Sharon is endearingly dressed in a cherry blossom pink strapless satin dress with bejeweled flower skirt by Moschino Cheap & Chic. Her striking cerise and mint green ankle-strap leather sandals are by Charlottle Olympia.

Sharon is elegantly wrapped in a metallic powder blue satin and organza dress with drape-folded bodice and flaired out skirt from Christian Dior's Spring/Summer 2013 collection. 
I much prefer the structure of this dress in the editorial over the runway.

Keeping the trend youthful, Emporio Armani presents a rose water pink charmeuse & lamé playsuit with wide-shouldered silhouette. It has been styled with stunning red and pink Fleur heels by Charlotte Olympia and a Jennifer Behr crystal headband.

Right: Blurring the line between the high street and designer avenue, Sharon wears a menthe blue cotton lace dress by Miss Selfridge, with a tulle, chiffon and organza skirt by Johan Rocha. Her flower topped heels are by Charlotte Olympia.

Sharon is veiled in a petal pink dress with sheer specked tulle overlay by Red Valentino.

Combining cut-outs, sheerness and chiffon is a pastel pink floral printed dress with bow-trimmed bands by Christopher Kane.

Showing off a more dressed down side to the cotton candy trend, Sharon is styled in a silk and chiffon peach melba top with sheer detail and matching shorts, which is by Cacharel. She also wears a fascinating blue, pink and yellow frilled satin sandal by Charlotte Olympia.

One of my favourite looks from the photo shoot is this lemon meringue leaf crepe tiered dress with frilled skirt by Alexander McQueen. It is interestingly contrasted by red peep-toe Christian Louboutin sandals and pink rubber necklaces.

Erdem Moralioglu is to be admired for this fizzy creation of a pink, lilac and yellow jacquard Damascus-printed silk dress with sheer organza overlay studded with yellow rhinestones. 
A crystal head piece by Jennifer Behr competes this beguiling look.

Is this sugary, sorbet sweet trend something you would try out?
