With the debut of her latest glove collection, Miss Numa is single "handedly"
creating the true indulgence in femininity for women everywhere

NEW YORK, April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- The fashion industry is falling in
"glove"...with Couture Gloves by Miss Numa.  Producing far from the ordinary
glove, Numa Perrier is creating couture. 

It is true -- in decades past, no sophisticated woman would socialize with
naked hands.  A pair of gloves was simply part of the complete outfit for
classic Hollywood starlets such as Vivienne Leigh, Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn
Monroe.  Numa is bringing back the intimate glamour that cocktail gloves
represent. "In the past, no well-dressed woman would leave home without her
gloves," says Perrier. "I am not seeking to reclaim that tradition, but rather
revitalize what was lost with it...the attributes of femininity and mystery." 

For her latest collection, Perrier created a line of contemporary gloves out
of the desire to have a beautiful, sensual and classic accessory -- void of
necessity or function. Believing that couture gloves are non-seasonal, her
designs have a Day and Night series. These petite works of art serve as an
expression of femininity: sensual, luxurious, and refined. Her trademark
combination of fine satin silks, lace, and leather create a blend of
sophistication, while the intricate detailing evokes the simple pleasures of
feminine fascination and delight. 

One of fashion's best-kept secrets, her "Little Black Glove" has become
equally as necessary -- and iconic -- as the sophistication of the Little
Black Dress. Numa believes every closet should hold both the LBD and LBG
(Little Black Glove). Infusing the feminine magic back into couture glove
making, her alluring charisma has generated a loyal and growing following.
These "glovers" are enchanted with her sassy, yet timeless, accessories. "My
gloves are about touching people, connecting to them and helping them connect
with others -- all while being dressed beautifully," says Perrier.  "The glove
protects, conceals, and reveals all at the same time... the way a woman should
be!"
