We Love Markarian EDITOR'S NOTE At the hands of Ali O’Neill, old-world romance and young modernity coexist beautifully. The NYC designer is known for using rich jacquards—sourced throughout Europe—to create nipped-at-the-high-waist cocktail dresses and frothy-trimmed, corseted gowns. For Spring, her signature silhouette is in full form, alongside sequin-swathed works of seduction and princess-worthy floor-sweepers.
