News from Althea Harper

The designs of Project Runway’s Althea Harper continue to make their mark with a-listers, including the Kardashian sisters.



In the promo image for Season 5 of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim is wearing a one shoulder black Carra Dress from Harper's 2010 Fall collection. This dress retails at $325 on www.altheaharper.com. The sleek lines and mesh cutouts of the dress were inspired by both the Futurism movement that originated in Italy during the early 20th century and the female form.



Harper, a New York based fashion designer who combines both tailoring and drape into unique silhouettes aimed to enhance every woman's form, continues to impact the fashion world, by crafting brilliant pieces recognized by celebrities, press and public alike.

This is not the first time Harper and the Kardashians have linked up. During a recent Mercedes-Benz Polo Tournament in the Hamptons, Harper and Kourtney discussed their favorite smart phone fashions with SWAGG.com. Harper has also dressed Kourtney Kardashian.
