Smooth, Sparkle, Shine! Metallic has been a huge hit this season from Jean Paul Gaultier to Marc Jacobs, ladies will be hitting the streets in lamé with a slick and sophisticated look. This Donna Karan evening gown from her Resort/Cruise 2012 line is the perfect example. But where did the inspiration come from, perhaps the Madonnia statue in the picture above. Created by Giuseppe Prego and goldsmith Joseph Bini in 1774, the Madonnia is a copper statue of the Virgin Mary, that gives the fashion industry an insight to shiny looks!
