Olivera
Savic
‘Deliverance’ was the theme and so it was from another era in fashion.
Inspired by early-twentieth-century simplicity, Olivera Savic's collection
had conservative three-quarter length skirts in timeless navy, boiled
wool vests, classic straight-leg slacks and sophisticated camel wool and
cashmere (oh, the cashmere!).
Highlights from the pair include silk pants, sheath
dresses and ruffled-hem skirts that make this new label classic and feminine.
Finer details included ruched shoulders and sheer, opaque sleeves. The
revival of dusty denim blues also found its way onto the runway in this
collection, giving a sort of movement from a traditional, conservative
time to a more modern age of greater fashion freedom. Unique Olivera Savic
hand-screened jersey was used and their lush faux fur jackets in striking
blues were luxurious.
Still, the feel was mostly classic contemporary, playing
it safe with silhouettes and textures. Olivera Savic's potential could
rest in that—Canadian women are looking for modern, classy daywear
to call their own. Versatile pieces are important for the modern woman
and Olivera Savic can offer just that. Their separates can be wardrobe
staples and should be a welcome addition to any wardrobe.
