████████████ DESIGNER
On Wednesday, September 11th at 7:00 PM at The Stage at The Tents at Lincoln Center, creative director Oskar Metsavaht of Osklen debuted his women's Spring/Summer 2014 collection. For Spring/Summer 2014 Metsavaht takes inspiration from the cut, color, vibrancy and transparency of gemstones, translating these influences into a collection of innovative fabrications and original prints. The Osklen aesthetic represents the lifestyle of modern men and women in a world where the urban and the naturalistic, the global and the local, the organic and the technological co-exist. This balance is further exemplified by the brand's use of eco-friendly "e-fabrics". This season, Metsavaht utilizes ecological silk, formed by use of cocoons discarded by the industrial process and environmentally safe vegetable dyes.
