Karigam F/W16

February 19, 2016

Inspired by the vast beauty of Venezuela’s Angel Falls, Karigam’s FW16 collection showcased an array of colors and textures found in nature. Helmed by designer Karina Gamez, the relatively new line – launched in 2014 – is know for its bold and sophisticated separates.

The show opened with a stunning array of shearling coats in smoky blues and balsam greens. Equally luxurious and inviting, they were absolutely calling my name. High necklines were present in just about every look, from funnel-collared coats to cowl neck jackets and silk scarves in rich marsala, forest and moon mist.

The Karigam woman is successful and independent and each piece conveyed a sense of authoritative power. It was the modern details on traditional silhouettes – asymmetrical leather hemlines, sequined front panel pants – that invigorated this sense of strength.

As the collection transitioned from marsala to moss I fell further entranced with each look. The off-the-shoulder turtleneck poncho was so chic and wearable, followed by the forest green wool coat that will be a must-have in any wardrobe. But the morning’s highlight was definitely the finale. A flowing white maxi dress topped with a vivid shearling vest? Brilliant.
