This Autumn Winter the collection is ultra-glam, bringing back old-world charm contrasted by elements of modern military cool and country club ski. So rush to Splash located in Centrepoint stores across Kuwait at Al Rai, Salmiya, Hawally, Fahaheel, Jahra, Fintas and the stand alone store at The Avenues and get your pick of the catwalk's most sought after trends.
The 'Military/Biker' collection is less about contemporary influences and more about looking back at historical designs and traditional military garb from different eras. Key pieces from this collection such as aviator jackets and military inspired coats contrasted with layered lace skirts, georgette dresses contrasted with sturdy tweed blazers & coats with fur detailing contrasted with biker jackets, give the line an edgy yet feminine look.
Flannel, double-faced wool, lightweight canvas, insignia & skin prints are the key details and fabrics for the collection while the colour palette is predominantly khaki, accentuated with a flash of cardinal red. Shades of olive green are mixed with earthen browns whereas black and deep blue palettes enhance the dark mood with a hint of antique gold mixed subtly with gunmetal grey and air-force blue.
The 'Country Club Ski' collection features several diverse looks from equestrian to the 60's preppy schoolgirl. Retro influences are drawn from the late 50's/early 60's and the 70's, a mood that mirrors a return to timeless dressing. It's all about mismatched layering and a mix of masculine with feminine.
To add a bit of romanticism, team the new awkward-length long skirts with neat belted knits or aviator jackets. Trouser shapes are redefined, with high-waisted leg-elongating flared silhouettes, Jodhpurs being a key item. The sheath dress, the trench, skinny fit-and-flare pea coats with shirt dresses, tailored shorts, bow-tied blouses are key highlights of this collection.
Waistcoats and gilets, mini-kilts, neat-fit skinny knits and big cardigan jackets will also find flavor in the season's must-haves. Fall colors like ochre, rusty orange and brown perfectly sync with imperial colors like tan and royal blue adding the extra glam to each of the looks.
