Naqada by Octavio Carlin
Rich velvets, contrasting colours and long hems were the draw in
this collection. They are beautiful on statuesque models, but we're
not too sure if the general less vertically inclined crowd coud
grasp onto this one. It was a beautiful, almost Grecian-like, in
grandeur, but not orginal enough or trashy enough for even the Hollywood
élite.

A Clockwork Orange was the theme, opening with a silhouette
reminiscent of the milk bar meets Charlie's Angels. Though
riding pants and derbys were in the collection, the prominent pieces
were the red and cream organza dress and red tweed miniskirt and
jacket. All very British and all very tailored, this season Jarick
presented a classic look that seamed more NY
than LA. From daywear to eveningwear,
Jarick covered all the bases, though being a bit scattered as far
as theme or continuity are concerned. A well received show.
