Fall 16 Runway | Duro Olowu

21-duro-olowu-fw-16

My favorite pick from Fashion Week so far has got to be Duro Olowu’s enchanting jewel-inspired collection.

from Maya Singer of Vogue.com: “Olowu’s gem fetish derived from the collaboration he recently embarked on with Madison Avenue jewelers Sidney Garber, in the course of which he became captivated by the luminescence of stones such as onyx, lapis, and jade. He picked up on those colors for the palette of his latest collection, and more broadly applied the idea of “preciousness” to his clothes. Olowu wanted, he explained at an appointment today, to make garments meant to be treasured as fine jewelry.”
