Blame It on Rio

The girl from Ipanema may be tall and tan and young and lovely — but sadly, she’s also totally nameless.

Juliana Jabour, on the other hand, is a Brazilian girl destined to make a name for herself stateside with the U.S. debut of her eponymous line, a gorgeous fall collection of dresses and decorated tops.

Contemporary cuts, bold colors, and Rio-inspired accents update her classic pieces with a South American spin (look for high hemlines, sizzling reds, and feminine ruching for a total va-va-voom factor).

Go for a sultry samba in the flirtatious cap-sleeve crimson baby doll dress. Sip on caipirinhas in the fire-engine red, belted tunic dress with billowing sleeves. Or simply pose like a supermodel in the demure yet sexy, long-sleeve black turtleneck number.

Jabour uses flowing viscose Lycra and soft jersey to create flattering silhouettes and give skirts a subtle swing when you walk.

Making sure that when you pass, each one you pass will go ahhh.
