| pleated skirt-is a work of wearable art |
...fashion designer Katty Xiomara presented a colorful feminine collection of pretty day and glamorous evening wear ---- "inspired by the art form of a “chocolatier” which melted geometric shapes into organic forms."

this pattern enlivened several items…soft and dreamy
|
Hailing from Portugal-where she is a big brand…the designer's Spring efforts 2015 were just the right balance between modern edge and very wearable-all silhouettes with a real eye for details and prints…cleverly constructed ---by someone who clearly knows how to drape-sew together fabrics ---and how textiles flow against the body.
Always added pluses-the wonderful way with patterns-and solids-in geometric blocks or--- painterly watercolor images- of the textiles (something we associate with this designer)--- and the top notch fit of the clothes on the models.

| great dress---for work, cocktails---sweet peter pan collar is not to sugary when atop a sexy draped and belted frock. |
Less looks shown on the runway…and with some accessories in the ensembles…imo…help with the overall effort. Which was really really good.
The finale dress was a collaboration with Nolcha’s sponsor, OtterBox, integrating the new “Alpha Glass,” a fortified glass screen protector for mobile phones…."elegant, refined, under-stated strength…" and very cool.
