Already beloved by the Hollywood set, who consistently choose the designer's gowns to grace the red carpet throughout award season, Acra really showed her versatility this season by incorporating a variety of fun, edgy day looks into her offering.  Fantastic multi-colored furs, lean leather  pants, and crane-print tees all made an appearance before the gowns began to come down the runway.
